    Another for Worst development of 2007:

    KBM getting ever more politically biased, and its admin writing political posts, and not allowing comments on them.

    -> Example:
    Demo outside Karachi press club at 03:00 p.m. tomorrow (December 18)
    posted by Bolshevik at 8:53 PM on December 17, 2007

    Contrary to what people are saying, I don’t think the flyover was the most important development. I believe the most important development were the new storm drains. Hell yes.
