Yay!

I'd like to use this space to point out that the site has just reached 1000 contributing members. Also notable, VideoSift has zoomed past 25 000 active videos and will soon have 10 000 registered users.

Way to go gang!

What should I give Sifty for his birthday? Does he prefer white or whole-wheat flour? Multigrain perhaps?

Tragically, he was canceled by Fox. It's too bad, too; he had such potential.

This would be a good history to add to Wikipedia. I discovered Videosift about 2 months after it's creation (It took me a couple more months to join). I never thought I'd end up having it as the one place I visit, and spend most of my time on. I love it! And Dag if there is no monetary reward from this. I hope the pride you take in creating such a unique and amazing online community is something you'll take to the grave.

I've been around for about a year now and I've enjoyed every minute. I haven't contributed as much as I may have liked but I'm happy to see a great community like this thrive.

No, there isn't a lot of monetary reward- but I am extremely proud of what we've done here.

And if there's anything I've learned as an adult it's that when you set out from the onset to have "making money" as your primary goal- you're doomed to failure- at least eventually. All the great things in life happen when you follow your bliss.

When the big bubble bursts for TechWreck 2.0 - VideoSift will be fine, because we don't have very far to fall. We won't have to auction off our Aeron chairs because we don't have any.

Damn you Dag! It's because of you I've not watched this year's season of Frontline!

Like Dr. Frankenstein, you have created a monster which is quickly escaping your control. Heh. Reading the "ancient" history of VS certainly brings some perspective to it all.

WTG man - you have mined a fabulous jewel from the slag of the internet (with a little polishing help from Lucky and James ). May it shine ever brighter.

Happy birthday, sift, and this I guess would be a good a time as any to thank Blue's News and, perhaps more precisely, Ant who submits videos from here to BN for showing me the Path Of Sifteousness

Thanks Ant! And Dag, and all you others: Group Hug!

I'm a newcomer, but that won't keep me from wishing a happy birthday, or contruction-day would probably be more apt. I salute the sift, and I salute all the people that make up our community. We may not always see eye to eye, but at least we can debate it. Huzzah.

Congratulations, everyone - Dag and crew, of course, but also all the contributors through whom VideoSift continues to be the best video site on the 'net. No matter how many visitors come through, it's all of you who give this place its flavor... No matter how weird and offensive that may occasionally be.

Bravo.
