Boy Genius Report turns 2!

Wow. Two years have gone by super-fast — so fast that we forgot about our own anniversary — and we’re still as focused as ever. Last year we had a BGR anniversary event to blow things out, but we’re keeping it low key this year. No events, no parties, just work. After all, that’s why we’re where we are, right? Big shoutout to the whole BGR team that has put in countless hours of hard work and has helped maked BGR one of the most influential tech sites around. Joshua “I’m on tour” Karp, Zach “Is it smoke break time yet” Epstein, Marc “Hell yeah, I’ll sell that Storm on eBay” Flores, Kelly “Caffeine” Hodgkins, and last but not least, Michael “I wished I lived in London” Bettiol — you guys are awesome. But what good would all of the above writers be (including myself) if there was no one reading the site? We’ve got some of the most loyal fans on the planet (no, seriously, just read the comments), and we thank you. Thank you for making BGR your homepage, thank you for checking it out from your BlackBerry at work when you’re not supposed to, and thank you for almost ruining your honeymoon by sending us tips. Someone did actually do that. We’ve got some exciting things coming up (read: stupid giveaways other sites can’t touch) in the next couple weeks or so, and you know us… We’ll be working on those leaks, scoops, and exclusives that make BGR your favorite blogger’s favorite blog.

    Congradulations. In the past two years I’ve probably visited this website at least twice 1,000 times.

    So while people are sitting in the office on their Blackberries when they shouldnt be… I run to the bathroom at work to sneak a peak every few hours JUST so I can see if ANY news came out on BGR.

    Happy Birthday BGR - and to all the writers, YOU FUCKING ROCK!

    Oh, and Tookie, BGR isnt in the tank for AT&T and Apple… They also love Blackberries and Verizon (as stated by BG himself).

    Thanks guys. Its the homepage on my sk for quite some time now which I read the first thing in the morning, and night before I go to sleep, and also refresh at least a dozen times each day.

    I think it’s the mark of a great site that it seems like it’s been much more than two years that I’ve dropped by BGR daily to get my electronics fix. Nice job BG, cheers for two and here’s to many more.

    I didn’t know you were only 2!! This surprises me, as the impression I’ve gotten is that you were older! No offense, please! hehe…It’s a compliment to a site very well run.

    At any rate…

    HAPPY ANNIVERSARY…to The Boy Genius Report! ;)
