…and let’s make a toast for the year to come.

But first, a quick thank you for another successful year at Logistics Viewpoints. Total page views increased 107 percent this year compared to 2009; we have 1,022 followers on Twitter (and counting), and we’re getting an average of almost 2 new email subscribers per day. A lot of this growth has been fueled by word of mouth, so thank you for telling your friends and colleagues about us. Also, we just launched a new group on LinkedIn. Click here to join.

What were the most read postings published this year? Below is the Top 10 list. As you can see, writing anything about Walmart always attracts attention.

We also held a very successful seminar on performance-based outsourcing last February. We plan to hit another home run this coming February with our seminar on “Beyond the Perfect Order Metric: Bringing Together Supply Chain, Category Management, and Mobile Technologies to Improve On-Shelf Availability.” Take a look at the great agenda and lineup of speakers we’ve put together. If you haven’t registered yet, it’s not to late to save $200 off the registration fee (the early-bird deal ends December 30, 2010). And since space is limited, secure your spot today so that you don’t miss out.

And, of course, a big thank you to all of our sponsors–Descartes, LeanLogistics, Manhattan Associates, MercuryGate, Menlo Worldwide Logistics, RedPairie, Ryder, Sterling Commerce, Transplace, Unipart Logistics, CH Robinson, and Savi Technology–for their continued support and guest commentaries. Simply put, without the support of our sponsors, this site would probably not exist.

Okay, now for the toast:

L’Chaim–To Life.

Yes, it’s a simple toast, but when when you focus on making the best out of your life, as well as enriching the lives of those around you, everything else follows, and it’s usually all good.

From all of us at Logistics Viewpoints, we wish you much health, happiness, and success in the New Year. See you in January!
