Happy Bloggiversary to Me!

    Three years ago today, Tattoosday was born.

    On July 31, 2007, I put up a post on BillyBlog, featuring a tattoo on a co-worker named Sephora.

    The idea was to post a weekly tattoo on Tuesday, and use this is a vehicle to expand my horizons a bit; meet interesting people and learn about tattoos.

    There was one problem. I enjoyed it too much. There weren't enough Tuesdays in the week. I was impatient and wanted to post right away, not wait until Tuesday. And so, as Kurt Vonnegut would say, it goes....

    So a month later I threw the previous months post up on the stand-alone blog, Tattoosday. And BillyBlog faded.

    It's still there, but Tattoosday is my passion and I couldn't have even imagined, back in 2007, how easy it would become for me to talk to strangers about their ink.

    The once-a-week project produced forty-five separate interactions in July, we have a 30-day backlog of material, and this past week we registered our 650,000th hit. Not too shabby.

    Go see the original post here to see how far we've come.

    And a hearty thanks to all our contributors, all our fans, and all the tattooists out there creating wonderful, interesting, portable art. Without all of you, Tattoosday would have been a blip of an idea, and nothing more.
