That’s right Speak Up has been at it for three hundred and sixty five continuous days. I can’t emphasize how grateful I am for everybody who has participated in this forum/blog that started small — but always with big dreams — and is now one of the strongest, smartest (and dare I say, handsomest) on-line design communities. And pretty soon off-line.
Twelve months ago this place was empty, you could hear the sweat coming off my forehead fearing that this would be a failure. In that first month only over one hundred comments were written, seventy five percent of them mine — today a hundred and thirty comments can be expected in less than forty eight hours.
I could go on and on. I just want to say that this has been one of the most interesting years of my life. Speak Up has opened many opportunities for me and hopefully for many of you. But most importantly I have met amazing people, that will surely become life-long friends — yes, you know who you are.
(Raise your glasses please)
Here is to another great year.
Sincerely,
Armin.
Just remember us all when you get to the top. ;o)
