The guardian has several slide shows with commentary, called "pick of the
picks".  The best index I can find is here -
http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/photography - but that's going to
change with time (for some reason neither Google nor Yahoo return anything
for "pick of the picks").

Also, in somewhat retrospective mood, 2008 was the year that the internet
finally became ubiquitous, at least in my life (and I realise that I am
somewhat behind the curve).

I realised this when I was in the middle of installing a new lock in the
door, googling for how to sharpen a chisel correctly on a whetstone, while
listening to music on a network (wifi) music player, that I had "pirated"
earlier in the day...
