Top 5 moments of 2009

by John Ryding

Every week I tune in to watch the Totally Rad Show on Revision3. It is a show the reviews current movies, tv, videogames, comics, and more. A great show that talks about entertainment that fits my tastes. Every year they have an awards show where the three hosts give their top 5 from each category of movies, tv, etc. This year they introduced a new final topic that did not fit under the “entertainment” theme of the show, their top 5 moments of 2009.

Upon seeing this, I figured it would be good to write about my top five moments of 2009:

  1. Working on IBM’s Jazz Foundation and Jazz.net
  2. Organizing the first Hak5 Live event at Virginia Tech
  3. Attending Defcon in Las Vegas
  4. My adventures during Virginia Tech’s Spring 2009 graduation weekend with my friend Tim
  5. Wednesday Nights at The Flying Saucer in Raleigh, NC

Wow, looking back on it all, 2009 was awesome. I wonder how I will top it in 2010?
