Happy Birthday To MeAndMyDrum!

by Mark Sierra on May 20, 2007

MeAndMyDrum turns 90 days oldMeAndMyDrum turns 90 days old today! In that short time I’ve learned a lot about blogging and met some really great people along the way. In fact, the experiences I’ve had from this one have impacted the way I run my other blog about web safety.

Since MAMD was born I’ve gone from, “Ohmygosh, how will I ever get out of the 7-digit Alexa ranking” to “Hey, maybe I can improve that thing after all.”

I don’t recall the first number I had in Alexa other than the “1,8XX,XXX”, but after comparing that to what it was on May 16 (318,686), I’d have to say that I’m pleased. :)

My Technorati authority continues to rise and finally broke the 3-digit barrier last week (currently sitting at 104).

Google pagerank remains at 3.

To celebrate, I’ll be putting on a contest. More about that in another post, so stay tuned! :smile:

Well I wish I could say I’ve accomplished in a year what you have in 90 days :P

Hey happy 3 months buddy! Things just seem to get better and better.
Not that I’m complaining but … um where’s the free beer? :mrgreen:

Mark May 21, 2007 at 12:05 am

LOL

Yes, they do! As for the beer, hmmm, I sent it to you. You didn’t get it?

Mike, you know anything about that? :wink:

Beer, what beer?? Nope I don’t know a thing about that.

*belch*

Mark May 21, 2007 at 12:25 pm

ROTFL!! Oh that’s right, you’re milk kind of guy. I apologize for the oversight. :lol:

@Mark:
All I got was the label :shock:
@Mike:
If you drank all the beer, send me the chips :lol:

I’d like to wish your blog a happy birthday and many more months/years to come ;)

Mike (143 comments.) May 21, 2007 at 10:31 pm

You’re totally welcome to have the chips. I’ve never been much of potato chips kind of guy :P Now pretzels on the other hand…we’d probably need to have some sort of MTV style death match for those. I don’t give those up without a fight ;)

Mark May 21, 2007 at 10:36 pm

@Tay: Thank you! I really appreciate that. Be sure to check out my contest (of which I’m going to update shortly).

@Mike: agreed, potato chips are good but only if they’re flavored with something else: cheddar and sour cream, sour cream and onion. Wait…I guess that’s the reason for my waistline. Okay, starting tomorrow I’m jogging. ;)

@Mike:
Ahh pretzels are against my religion :lol: . Oh, when you send the chips don’t forget the dip :mrgreen:
