Misssives celebrates 1000th Visitor!
Yesterday was a special day in the life of the Misssives as we were delighted to welcome our 1,000th visitor to our humble home here on blogspot.
Now we bought our blogspot as a second pad, if you will. The Misssives original home is on Myspace and I have had over 5,000 “actual reads” of the Misssives there since I started last July. It’s nice as you know you are being read, and people seem to look forward to reading the crap I come up with. But I felt I was too cosseted by the touchy feely safeness of the Myspace community and decided to subject the Misssives to the vast open tundra that is the Tinternet. it’s all about customer choice here at the Misssives, you can read them on blogspot or myspace; it’s up to you.
Now the phrase “actual reads” is important. On Myspace people log in to specifically read your blog, out here in the tinternet you get all sorts of people dropping by for all sorts of reasons. People who just happen upon you randomly.
So it’s with no further ado that I welcome visitor 1000!
Reader 1000 is from Finland (a country very dear to my heart after spending a great deal of time over there in the last few years…and then there’s the whole Lordi Eurovision thing …genius) who just dropped by to link to a photo of Jude Law I had on the post:“When we were young, we shone Like the Sun”

back in March. You didn’t stay long, which is a shame, but I welcome you all the same.
In fact I can actually welcome you in Finnish:
Hei! Tervetuloa! Minen nimeni on Misssymartin!*
See, you get a lot more here than just pics of balding sex addict pretty boy overrated filmstars. You get noticed and then welcomed IN YOUR OWN LANGUAGE to the wonderful world of the Misssives.
So thank you to you, fleeting Finnish friend, and to all those who have come by to The Misssives on Blogspot over the last three months, whether it’s to read my stuff and chuck in the odd welcome comment, or to copy that Victoria Beckham photo I posted a while back, or simply to find out why your google search for “petting” threw up someone ranting about swimming pools.
Here’s to the next 1000!
* Hello! Welcome! My name is Misssymartin!
