Best Tech stories of 2006?

Dave Winer on his blog says "Steven Levy is looking for the best tech writing of 2006."

For me the best "tech story" in 2006 was told by Jon Udell on his blog at infoworld. He has moved on from their and continues to tell his story here. His weekly podcasts with people who are working on real innovation, great mashups/web tools created throughout the year, great use of screencasts told the best story of all.
