OMB’s 1,000th Post

OMB 1,000th postWell, it’s been 11 months since my 500th post, and 18 since the inaugural post. Clearly it’s taken me almost twice as long to get the last 500 out as did the first 500. But hopefully everyone feels like my quality has improved.

I would like to once again thank ALL of my loyal readers. I never would have guessed that I’d be getting 15-20,000 page views per day a year ago, or that I’d have thousands of regular readers, but I can tell you that I really appreciate the fact that you all keep coming back.

As I’ve stated before, I’ll continue to give all of my advertising revenues to charity, or return them to the reader community in the form of member contests.

After a year and a half, and 1,000 articles, there is just one favor I’d like to ask of you all. Nothing pleases me more than seeing the subscriber count grow, so if you could help me spread the word to just a couple of friends or co-workers by suggesting they subscribe, I sure would appreciate it. And if you have any suggestions for ways I could improve things around here please don’t be shy about dropping a comment to let me know.

Thanks again!

    Thanks Nicole. :-)

    Just to be clear, I give ALL of the ad money to charity. I do this because I don’t want there to ever be any question about the comments or opinions I post on the blog. No one pays me to say what I say, so if you see a glowing review – they earned it!

    Take care,

    John

    Congratulations. That works out to a pretty high average since that would be about 570 or so days. That’s nearly 2 posts per day!

    Haha I’ve become a 1 post per week kind of guy so that is pretty impressive to me.
