THIS WEEK'S TOP PICK: Cisco Subnet's top 10 of 2007

Cisco Subnet has been following Cisco - the company, its personalities and the individuals who work in the Cisco industry - since we launched the Cisco Subnet Community in February. We're witnessing Cisco morphing into a software firm - with an emphasis on social networking for enterprises - and we've been following its ups and downs as it tries to broaden itself away from relying on its traditional bread-and-butter network plumbing gear. Thank you, dear reader, for joining us on the Cisco ride. We've collected the year's most-read Cisco Subnet Community items for your pleasure. See what you enjoyed reading and commenting on in 2007. Read more.
