1000th Post
I joined Tumblr in 2008 thanks to the more visual, creative and laid-back nature of the community here. I didn’t want to have to crank out a blog post like clockwork and to just be myself and let the blog be what it will be. So lets see what I have been posting about.
A look back
1st post - A three word link… “Laser Staring Cats”. A fitting way to kick off, I think you’ll agree!
My stuff
- Tipped off Techcrunch, the 3rd largest tech blog in the World, about Gift Google Chrome for Christmas campaign I discovered while checking out Chrome on Ubuntu NBR.
- My 404 page made the cut on 404notfound.fr.
- I posted a bunch of my older work stuff and personal posts under the #paulfosterdesign tag, with more to come.
Theme Release: In July 2010, I launched ‘Print Theme’ a CMYK Html5 based theme onto the Tumblr theme garden. The installs quickly rose to 400+ within a month and have remained level since [sort of].
Most viewed post: A justified rant about an insurance company constantly calling me has been the most popular post until they ceased. 70+ visitors/month for nearly 18 months. Hopefully my advice stopped the calls for many other people.
Most impressed: Yellowbird 360 video and more recently the Lytro Light-ray cameras. I like to know a lot about tech, and not much surprises me but these just blew me away.
Tumblr Crushes: thedailywhat, are2 [nerdy stuff], pacalin [geeky stuff] and dvp.
Cant believe I am at 1000, thanks for following so far,
Paul
