Mumbrella is 12: The year we turned off the comments
As Mumbrella turns 12 in the year of Covid, founder Tim Burrowes offers his annual update on our journey so far
This week marked Mumbrella’s 12th anniversary.
My first post was on December 9, 2008, and every year since then I’ve written something about the journey.
You can read my previous updates here:
- Our first post: Welcome to Mumbrella
- Year two: Mumbrella is two
- Year three: Mumbrella is three – thanks for supporting us
- Year four: Mumbrella is four (and a bit)
- Year five: Why I’m stepping down as Mumbrella editor to help grow the business
- Year six: Mumbrella is six – now we’ve got a history
- Year eight: Mumbrella is eight: Beating the burnout
- Year nine: Mumbrella is nine – We’ve joined the two commas club
- Year ten: Mumbrella is ten: Tailwinds and headwinds
- Year eleven: Mumbrella is 11: Triumph and failure
Every year since Mumbrella started, writing our annual update has been a little less my story to tell. In the early years, that was as the team grew and it got to the point where I was no longer involved in every single project. And since the end of 2017, I was no longer an owner of Mumbrella.
