Mumbrella is three – thanks for supporting us
Mumbrella hits its third anniversary today.
Our first post, from editor Tim Burrowes, attempted to manage expectations:
“Whenever you go to a newish blog, the first posting is invariably rubbish. It usually makes a lame promise about what it’s going to be (invariably controversial and hard-hitting), and how often it will be updated (frequently). The original promise is very rarely kept.”
The name Mumbrella came from a late night conversation in the Beresford Hotel in Sydney between PHD’s now global strategy director Mark Holden and Burrowes. (Holden liked the warm semantics around the word Mum.)
Happy Birthday 🙂
Well done all! You clearly understand that no amount of bullshit or industry connections can beat good old hard work and energy. Love they way you’re bringing film and advertising industry together – smart. Cheers!
CONGRATULATIONS! Bloody impressive work right there. AND happy birthday.
Congratulations, it was and still is a welcome addition to the media landscape.
I personally like the ratings report every day. I subscribed to oztam and received the report for a while but then they stopped. Even when they did give the report it wasnt as comprehensive as this. Look forward to next year.
I didn’t realise we both had the same birthday. Congrats on your third.
Happy birthday mate, and congrats on all the success so far.
Interestingly, Digital Buzz’s 3rd Birthday is tomorrow 🙂
Cheers
