AboutUs Turns Three! Let Us Buy You a Beer

Though it admittedly passed without much fanfare (yet!), last week marked the third year since AboutUs.org went live to the world. Though the ideas and collaborative team behind the site had been percolating for years beforehand, it was on June 20th 2006 that we came in to existence.

Time flies when you’ve got your nose to the grindstone, and since those first days, we’ve grown to become a venture-backed startup of more than 30 employees (and soon to be more!) that has built a site of 14 million pages.

But we didn’t do it alone. AboutUs is a community-built endeavor, and as a way of saying thanks for being along for the ride, we’d like to buy you a beer.

At July 17th’s Beer & Blog in Portland, we’ll be picking up the tab, so be sure to join us at the Green Dragon from 4-6pm. Beer & Blog is a venue where we’ve received much sage advice over the years, and we’re delighted to be its benefactor for a change.
