At KazzaDrask New Media, we cover a lot of content ground throughout the year – writing mostly about how social media (or online culture) affects many aspects of life. Sometimes we write about politics and civil rights, other times about new media trends, startups, travel and celebrity, and often about things that bring the US and Australia (US and Under) together – since we work with clients in both places. Sometimes, any number of these topics converge – and as we look back over the stats for 2010, we can see some of these were the stories that got the most “hits”. If you missed these stories during the year, here’s a chance to recap. The KazzaDrask Top 10 Stories of 2010 are:
