2007...what to say? A year that saw a lot of changes. First DSN moved to the big time here at Sb. Our traffic and regular visitors increased. At the old DSN, we hit 100,000 hits in nearly two years of blogging. For 2007, we reached nearly 320,000 hits! Lots of great posts, new discoveries, novel research, and...well deep-sea news. In the next week or so I will post the Best of 2007 determined by a crack, i.e. a bunch of suckers we got for free, team of experts. What will happen next year. DSN is going to be bigger, better, and badder. Don't worry we will still be the #1 action site ever! Expect more theme weeks and craziness centered on all deep-sea happenin's. Expect some major change ups too but you got to wait for that!

What do you do when you're not blogging?

Zooillogix is a huge fan of Deep Sea News and for once in our lives, the feeling is mutual (go to hell Davina Josco from 2nd grade). Deep Sea News asked Zooillogix to weigh in on our favorite DSN posts from 2007 about five weeks ago and Benny finally got around to it yesterday! Today DSN has posted…
I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed your posts since I joined up. I really look forward to receiving them and being able to comment sometimes, so here's to you and may you go from strength to strength in 2008 and beyond! Happy New Year!
