Today we’re celebrating, as this post right here is the one thousandth post on Google Sightseeing!
We’re commemorating the event in three ways…
1. We’re re-launching our Google Earth Network Link, which has been less than functional for a few months now. Along with a re-development of the underlying system we’ve added custom placemark icons and a secondary feed which features only the most recent entries, so you can always see what’s new on Google Sightseeing from within Google Earth.
You can sign up to the Network Links on our brand new Tools page.
2. We’re launching a new blog! Rotacoo is the parent company of Google Sightseeing and the new Rotacoo blog is where Alex and I will be posting news, ideas and rants related to anything we like including Google Sightseeing, Google Earth, WordPress, Web programming, design and the price of cheese.
3. Stats! To start off the Rotacoo blog we’ve looked at the Google Sightseeing stats for the last two years and added up all the numbers. Read the whole entry over at Rotacoo.
Hello, I’m Pat Sajak and I’d like to buy an ‘e’ for the tools link.
Congratulations guys! Seeking for the next thousand! 🙂
Haha, I’m a top 10 poster!!
Should be since I’ve been visiting since day one :
Thanks for the hint, Pat Sajak.
Thanks Pat Sajak, it wouldn’t have been right if there hadn’t been a typo in the 1000th post somewhere! Now fixed 😀
did I even make the top 20? I gotta start leaving more comments!! 🙂
Patrick, lol, but nobody knew it was a competition before now – not even us!
…but yes, you were in the top 20…
Woah, kick ASS! Number five!
ahem Excuse my French.
Ha ha – you tried to stop me by putting various technological obstacles in my way but you couldnt stop me and my dry, pithy comments.
If i hadn’t constantly emailed you whinging to let me in I may not have made it into the top 20?
Anyway thanks for putting up with my whinging and Northern Git and Bernard Lovell* thank you too!
Lol! CM, I dread to think how many comments you would have posted if the spam queue hadn’t been keeping you at bay for weeks on end! Actually, maybe that’s why the spam queue was barring your posts….. ;D
Can we have league table of top commenters?
wo wo wo.
Hang on. 215 comments? Is that me? No way! I know I’ve seen robs before, was that only the name Rob usin my email address? Holy cow that can’t be right.
Sorry Rob, but that is definitely number is the number of comments in the database using your email address. (Well, +1 now…)
Wow. Thats quite cool. I’ve never been number one at anything. Well, colour me purple and call me Geraldine. I must say its a great website and as number one foreign ambassador, I feel it is my duty to say Thankyou for such a cool site.
Bring on the forum! 😀
Doesn’t seem like a thousand though. Thats a heck of a lot of articles you have done.
I suppose congratulations are in order 😀
Wow! congratulations. Wish you soon reach the next one thousand.
