My pics from the first tumblr meetup, Williamsburg, April 2008.
I made so many good friends that night: (Eric, Nick Gray, Soup, Bianca, Mark, Justin, Anthony.. dozens more so I’ll stop listing y’all.)
Thanks to everyone who’s contributed to tumblr for helping change my life.
Technically, it was the second meetup, but I’ll always reblog these images because they include me after my first night cooking at Whisk & Ladle (top right, in blue); a lot of my old college friends (who actually weren’t/aren’t on Tumblr; top image, middle group); and then a lot of friends I ended up making months, even years, later (Rachel, for one, top photo, brunette in black and grey).
And then there’s the fact that Peter — the guy who this September will marry one of my best friends — is standing just a few feet away from those old friends I mentioned, people who are now like his family … but Peter and Andrea didn’t meet ‘til a little evening party at Lauren’s place some 6 months later (bottom left, big smile).
Which begs the question … where were you that night, Andrea? We could have moved this whole process up half a year.
And it also begs the question … just where would we be without Tumblr? Who would Andrea be with? And given the fact that I met M. through Cirino whom I met through Mark whom I met through Nick — who would I be with?
And where would little Zoe be??
Technically at least the third meetup, but this thread is more than just semantics. I can’t believe this was 5 years ago, that my back would be to a group of people that I now know very well, and that I’d be marrying someone that just happened to be in this room. (Nora! Andrea was there - she was just not in any of these pictures. So close… and yet neither of us were ready). I’m in a black polo, next to Zach’s mustache in the bottom left of the first big photo here.
The lesson is always go anywhere you’re invited (and some places you’re not) even if it is with a group of internet strangers and in a weird warehouse/loft in Brooklyn you’ve never been to before.
What a wonderful journey we’ve all had. And thanks to Tumblr for having us along.
That’s me next to you Peter next to Zach. Also remember meeting Katie and talking Six Feet Under with Lauren and Melissa.
Also, fun fact, this top photo is reversed for some reason, I wear my watch on my left wrist.

Tumblr Staff: News!
Everyone, I’m elated to tell you that Tumblr will be joining Yahoo.
Before touching on how awesome this is, let me try to allay any concerns: We’re not turning purple. Our headquarters isn’t moving. Our team isn’t changing. Our roadmap isn’t changing. And our mission – to empower creators to…
Really? “Fuck yeah”, really? Stay classy Tumblr.

Mars Gets Bombarded by 200 Small Asteroids and Comets Every Year
—
One of the benefits of having a spacecraft in orbit around another planet for several years is the ability to make long-term observations and interpretations. The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has been orbiting Mars for over seven years now, and by studying before-and-after images from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera, scientists have been able to estimate that the Red Planet gets womped by more than 200 small asteroids or bits of comets per year, forming craters at least 3.9 meters (12.8 feet) across.
“It’s exciting to find these new craters right after they form,” said Ingrid Daubar of the University of Arizona, Tucson, lead author of the paper published online this month by the journal Icarus. “It reminds you Mars is an active planet, and we can study processes that are happening today.”
Over the last decade, researchers have identified 248 new impact sites on parts of the Martian surface in the past decade from spacecraft images, determining when the craters appeared. The 200-per-year planetwide estimate is a calculation based on the number found in a systematic survey of a portion of the planet.(via universetoday)
