FujiRumors Turns 8 Years Old Today: 6,000+ Articles of Pure Fujifilm Passion!
Today FujiRumors turns 8 years old.
Some things have not changed in these years:
- I still run FujiRumors during breaks on my teaching job
- I still live in this little rented apartment in a mountain village
- I still drive my 11 year old Mazda2 (that you can see in this article)
But some things changed:
- I married
- I definitely own more Fujifilm gear ;)
- some gray hair started to appear
I’ve checked the system, and it tells me that I wrote 6,143 articles in 8 years.
Initially I wrote about 200 articles a year, but as the Fuji fellowship grew, I felt I need to honor your participation, and now publish about 1,000 articles a year.
Sounds a lot?
Well it is, but…
… but writing articles is probably just 30% of my work, as even more time require emails, comments, facebook group moderation, technical work for the site and more.
I might be wrong, but from the encouraging emails I get, I believe many of you appreciated this effort :).
In fact, some readers even asked me how they can support my work, now that the PayPal donation link on FujiRumors is no longer linked to FR, but KNGO, and NGO that gives access to free education for poor Cambodian kids.
Well, Paypal will remain linked to KNGO, but if you like what I am doing, and would like to support my work here on FR, then now you can do it via my new Patreon page here.
I don’t know, I hope that maybe I could reach the goal to be able to cover the monthly costs of this site via Patreon, which would be already fantastic. Let’s see.
So guys, it’s 11 PM here now.
I will bring out my dog, and then go sleeping.
Because tomorrow, after my breakfast, after my planing for the school, after a short walk around the lake with dog in the fresh winter sun, I will be back on the computer, and I will be working on rumors that have to be shared ;).
Have a fantastic weekend,
Patrick
