There are some old New Year’s Eve traditions, like staying at home, drinking and watching Jools Holland’s Hootenanny, and then there are some new ones like posting a list of significant blog posts from the passing year, and failing to make any significant predictions.

So this year it’s Tom Jones, Kasabian, Paolo Nutini, Dizzee Rascal, Lily Allen, Roger Daltrey, Florence and the machine, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Paloma Faith, Dave Edmunds, Shingai Shoniwa, Rico Rodriguez, Ruby Turner and Boy George.

Dave Edmunds?

And here are the hand selected posts from 2009:

• Rowan Tree Folk Song A new song written in Scotland
• How to Photograph a Ghost Part of a series of screencasts about Mac Image editing
• Blog Action Day – When The Waters Rise
• Theatre Breaks Magazine On the launch of a new magazine style theatre blog
• Now I’ve Got Swine Flu – Really Live blogging the symptoms
• Location independent working – First excursions into the world of location independent working
• H1N1 Swine Flu Symptoms News blogging epidemiology at the outset
• Grace Hopper on Ada Lovelace Day
• Business as usual in the US

Have a happy 2010 everyone, there are going to be some more changes around the corner.
