And here’s the proof – this is post number:

1,000!

There are 6 pages (About Miss Giggles, Blogging 101, Commenting, Contact, Education Links, Quilting Blogs), 25 categories, and 1,622 comments (nobody commented the first two years really, barely 109 comments total in the first two years). You can see a breakdown of lots of the counts from the start through the end of 2010 that I put together in January. I’ll do that count again the end of this year.

The category count isn’t there though, so I thought I’d put it together here and you can see what all those 1,000 posts have been about.

:computer: This blog started as my first assignment when I started my Masters degree. And now here it is. I have learned a lot doing this, both about the technology and about myself. And I know some of you have used it to learn about me (Brett, I’m looking at you). It is one of my favorite hobbies. I do it for me, but I really appreciate all of you being a part of it as well. So I’m proclaiming this Commenter Appreciation Day on Random Giggles. Thank you for being a part of the first 1,000 posts. :daisy:

I have a lot of ideas for the start of the next 1,000 posts, but if you have any ideas or questions or suggestions, just let me know.
