Happy Birthday to Glorious Noise!

February 6, 2002 15 Comments by Jake Brown

It was one year ago today that we started this thing. How do you like the new look? Expect more changes over the next several weeks as we work out some new features.

One thing you’ll notice is the ad. It took us a year to burn through our initial round of venture capital, and now we’re going to have to get some money. We hope you don’t think it’s too obtrusive. At the same time, we really do hope you support anyone who buys an ad on Glorious Noise. Once we get things rolling, you can expect one ad per month. That’s it. If you know of anybody who might be interested in an ad, send them here.

This new layout relies pretty heavily on some newer web features, so you may need to upgrade for the full effect. If you can’t do that, you can always use the mobile version which works on Palms, cell phones and other personal devices with web browsers.

Anyway, that’s what’s new. Feel free to let us know what you think about the new look.

    Anniversary Party in Chicago!! Blue Ribbon Brothers as headliners and drink specials (i.e. High Life pints for 50 cents) for all people who travel from GR. What was the date again?

    It’s a real shame that when you have cake, you can’t eat it to. Who made that god damned rule anyway?

    Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too? When’s the party?

    I just want to go on record as saying that I’m probably more proud of being associated with this site (especially this new design, which is amazing) than nearly anything else I’ve done in my “professional” writing career.

    Jumpin’ Jeebus, has it really been a year? It seems like only yesterday…”sniff”.Also, the new look is excellent – easier to navigate and still looks cool. ‘Maestro-I say right on!’
