As of today, all of us here at FindMySoft, myself included, will take a much needed break and go celebrate the winter holidays with our loved ones. Before I head out the door, I want to do two things.

#1 – I would like to wish all FindMySoft visitors Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I wish you all the best!
And #2, I want to end the year by presenting all of you with a few interesting statistics and facts some of the biggest names in the industry have made public. I would like to present you with a look back at 2010 if you will.
