But which stories did DCist staff like the most? When I saw the title, I was hoping for a bit more. This is a neat list but I thought the software allowed us to make this list at any time and obviously on Dec 31st, I can see by looking at the last 12 months, which the favorites of 2007 are. Perhaps a story about new challenges or new features over the last year or someone posting about the most controversial debates or horrible posters or whatever.
