Im famous...

Posted: Tuesday, February 24, 2009
...not really. But our loyal reader Adam posted this poster i designed a while back, on his blog. His blog is hosted at Tumblr.com. I dont really know how it works over there, but they randomly choose things off people's blogs to highlight on the front page. (or something like this, maybe ADam can leave a comment and clear that part up.)

Regardless, they put my poster, from his blog, on that page. Heres a screen-cap.



Heres the original, in case you forgot.



Big shout out to Adam for posting it in the first place.

Maybe it'll drive some traffic to this here blog, and help a dude out with some freelance work in the future.

    Heres the breakdown, You have a dashboard and you follow blogs you like, giving you an easy to read RSS reader basically, and you can "like" and reblog posts over on tumblr. I posted it someone reblogged it yesterday, a couple others reblogged it too and then this morning I got on and had about 10 likes and reblogs and I went back to the post and saw it was on the radar thing. The radar is kinda a whats cool right now thing. At the moment 84 people have liked or reblogged it. I've had 190 visitors from 25 countries so far and that should rise as analytics is a few hours slow usually. before that I had about 150 view in the month I've had the blog up. Hopefully you see a spike in traffic from it too. I'll post some final stats tomorrow.

    Just to swing this out there, and I think I know the poster is a joke. But I definitely disagree with its content.

    Ps - Had you even looked at the poster, before leaping into a "ripoff" tirade, youd have seen Frank's name at the bottom of the poster itself.
