File Exchange Pick of the Week

Our best user submissions

Looking Back: 2011 in Review

Having recently wrapped up another great year for the File Exchange (a year in which we saw the number of submissions grow more than 18 percent-- from 12216 to 14455), and another great year of expanding readership for the Pick-of-the-Week blog, it's time once again for a retrospective. Today's blog post provides an index of all of the File Exchange Picks of the Week for 2011.

As with past retrospectives, I have skipped any Picks that refer to files that have been removed from the File Exchange, or to tutorial videos, or contest announcements, items not useful in an index of this nature.

You can read the original blog posts for each of these picks by clicking on the names of the files and following the links to the "Pick of the Week" tag. As always, your comments are welcome.
