So, now that we have the Seventh Column back. I thought it would be a great way to show the richness and overall awesomeness of this community. We have a lot of new blood, and still got a few old farts still hanging around here. If you're new and are wondering why, hopefully this will answer that question.
Awesome stuff lies below.

Edited by LordRollin: 11/16/2014 6:16:39 PMGreat list, and it doesn't even scratch the surface of all the smaller projects that have happened over the years. There's a reason so many people have a hard time leaving this place. Also, meet ups at PAX. I mean, come on, look at us! *I'm not in that picture. I was helping take it.

Great post, Bricypoo! Took the liberty to fix a couple of the broken links for you. Links to the old site need to have the URL altered to display properly on the new one.
