ICO’s One-Year Blogiversary!

It seems like only yesterday that we began our love/hate relationship with WordPress, but it’s been a year already! Times have changed for us since then, too. When we set up the blog a year ago, we were cautious about setting expectations for it since we’re very busy most of the time, but we have a lot to share and really wanted to make it work. After a year’s experience with it we’ve learned a few things, and we’re making a little change.

So far we’ve been aiming to publish one blog post per week, which seemed achievable in terms of effort and we hoped we could start building a readership that way. While we couldn’t always manage our weekly post during super-busy times, we were able to stick to it more often than not, and we’re really rather proud of that! While we can’t promise to blog any more frequently, we’re committed to keeping up the current pace. More or less.

One thing we’ve evolved out of is neutral post authoring. There are three of us now and the general ‘we’ doesn’t work too well anymore, so Diane, Jen and I will be writing in our own voices and signing our posts from now on. As well as making it clear who’s saying what, as an added bonus it will be obvious who’s pulling their weight around here and who is a slacker (*coughJENcough*). I’m just kidding. You know we don’t slack. (Well, maybe a tiny bit during the holiday season.)

So, Happy Birthday ICO Blog, with hopefully many more to come. We’d really love it if you could help us celebrate by sharing with us what you liked best in the blog this year, and what you’re looking forward to reading about here in 2010. Cheers!
