Guess what guys? Sector930.com is almost 1 year old. That’s right, we’ve reached that age where we get to shove our fists into a big cake, while all the adults (a.k.a, better blogs) take pictures and note how adorable we are. Let’s take a look back on the year to rediscover and admire our accomplishments.
We started out in my tiny, one bedroom apartment on July 29 of last year with an immature duel of posts between Edwin and me. Then, we introduced ourselves in turn before we started our famous journey through sex, back-stabbing, and money grabbing.
I started, and never finished, a series of SQL tutorials. Joel went on about a bunch of math stuff that the rest of us don’t understand. Charlie contributed -5 posts. Edwin wrote our most popular post about OpenDNS. And Joe wrote a ridiculous post about energy drinks. We also (barely) managed to move our hosting and develop a high availability solution.
I had quite a blast rereading old entries. I noticed how we started out with a lot of excitement and ambition, posting often. Lately, though, posts have dribbled out every few weeks. That sounds like most IT careers. But everyone has been quite busy. Here’s the score:
- Weddings: 1
- Home purchases: 3
- Relocations: at least 5
- Job changes: at least 3
- iPhones: 4
- BlackBerries: 1
Overall, it’s been a good year. Thanks to all 3 of the readers, and thanks to the other authors. Sector 930 has been one of the most important things in my life for the past couple of years, and sector930.com has been doubly important for the past year. Here’s to another year of posts about boring jobs, math gobbelty gook, ham radios, and ADD.
We better enjoy this birthday while it lasts because we’ll never get to eat cake with our bare hands again. Was our infancy worth all the diapers, vomit, and breast feeding? We might find out when we hit puberty. In the meantime, it’s time to start growing up.
Congrats on closing in on a year. It’s my first visit. You have the best header of all time. The Good vs Evil cats…hahaha. Brilliant.
Thanks, Ryan. We don’t get very many readers at our humble little blog (probably because we don’t write very much, or very well), so we appreciate the occasional comment. Please, check out the back catalog, and spread the word if you like what you see.
In addition, I am now a fan of your site. It’s RIDICULOUS and my cholesterol shot up by 20 points just by looking at the pictures. Awesome.
