The anniversary almost slipped by unnoticed, but Epolitics.com officially turned eight years old on July 17th. Happy Birthday! Plenty’s changed around here in eight years; it’s funny to realize that one of the site’s earliest posts covered a clever way to embed headlines from an RSS feed on a MySpace page….
1919 articles later, we’ve covered far more topics than I ever would have imagined, from the details of tools and techniques to the big trends that have shaped a field increasingly central to how politics and advocacy get done. In the process, the site has been lucky enough to feature dozens of guest authors, many of them now big names in digital circles, and our collective advice has helped tens of thousands of readers like you change the world. Not bad for something that started because I was bored at work!
Another eight years? Why the hell not — as long as you keep reading, we’ll keep writing. Thanks for being part of the fun.
