57,761 posts published.

117,962,797 views (I started the feed stats a couple seeks after the blog was launched.  The blog was launched December 17, 2007.  The feed stats service was enabled January 19th, 2008).

Brick by brick. From the first month when we reached 100 views per day ad was excited, then 1000 a day after a year or so of putting the link to the blog in front of as many people I could, then adding great people as contributors, 5000, 10,0000, 20,000 four years in, 30,000 and now where we are now averaging around 45,000 views per day based in a city of 30,000.  What a gift it’s been to all of us.  Mainly the friendships.  You could take it all away and those friendships are the most valuable to me.  We’ve been through a lot.  We’ve lost loved ones, we’ve garnered national attention, won a ton of awards, fought the good fight, but at the end of the day it’s the people- the friendships, the love shared and  the passion for highlighting the best our city has to offer.  It’s the people.  It’s you guys.  It’s the community.

Here’s to another 10 years of passionate community love and collaboration.

Not the Amazon Show, by the way……. this tin star is awarded to our captain Joey Ciaramitaro along with congratulations for a VERY successful decade of posting his views of life on the dock.

I am not sure when I first became aware of Good Morning Gloucester, but it was pretty early in its history.  Immediately it became a favorite in my Bookmarks.  It was humorous, irreverent and timely and it kept me up-to-date from afar.  It seemed to reflect the Gloucester I’d come to know.

As time went on, the blog grew and adjusted to the readers.  Not as irreverent but still humorous and timely.  Contributors were added; some have come and gone.  The technology has advanced and the posts right along with these developments.  Like the tin that marks 10 year anniversaries, it is durable and reliable.

I  would like to thank Joey for his hours and hours of investment into the blog and the city’s promotion.  I am very pleased to be a contributor to the blog, which emphasizes the good news that needs to be shared.  When I described this to a non-FOB sister, she said “So he’s Ellen for Gloucester.”  I nodded.

Thank you and congratulations.  Here’s to 10 more!

Listen Please don’t think you’re not invited if you didn’t get a Facebook invite or personal invitation.  YOU’RE INVITED!

I/We don’t have the time top dig through to try to remember each and every GMG FOB to tag on Facebook and some of you don’t even have Facebook.

But the fact is that GMG wouldn’t be what it is without our awesome readers and friends.

we want you there.
