UO Toolbar's 3rd Anniversary
This is late in coming, but last month GameXbar's UO Toolbar reached it's 3rd anniversary of serving the UO community! Yup, three years and we're still pounding out the latest news about Ultima Online and the UO community of contributors, fan sites, and media... along with hardware reviews, security notices for your PC, and much more.
It's been a great 3rd year. Lots of new users. Met with many great UO players & team members at the San Diego and Seattle UO town halls. More links & feeds than ever. We look forward to a bigger & better year in 2009! Keep a look out for more changes and new products.
Like last year, I would like to personally thank all the fine people at Electronic Arts & Mythic Entertainment, UOcomplex, Ultimate Online Forums, UOGuide, UO Stratics, the Ultima Online Team, Whispering Rose Radio, Queen Mum for the cookies at the town halls, anyone else I have missed, and most sincerely... all our supporters and players in & around the UO community!
As you share your love of Ultima Online, please continue to tell others about UO Toolbar and GameXbar! Again... thank you.
