6 years + a new look for Richmond District Blog

Birthday-Cupcakes_zpsd0d6c9a5

Hi readers,

On May 9, we’ll be celebrating our 6th birthday. Hard to believe, right!?!? We figured it was time for a modern, cleaner look for the blog. Hope you like it!

The older posts will look a little odd due to image sizes etc but moving forward, we’ll be in sync with our new theme.

Some stats after 6 years: 3,049 posts, 15,942 comments (339,129 spam comments), 2.7 million page views, 770k users.

The top posts in these 6 years:
#1 Mysterious mini door found in Golden Gate Park
#2 Part of Internet Archive building badly burned in early morning fire
#3 Photos: Coyote pups in Golden Gate Park
#4 What lies beneath: the Richmond District’s Mile Rock Tunnel
#5 A Giant in our midst: Tim Lincecum parties in the Richmond

Happy 6 years, readers!

Sarah B.
