Oh my goodnesses. In near Sixteen Candles-like form, I almost forgot a very important occasion that is happening this week –

Snuzzy is turning ONE!

That’s right, it was a year ago when we decided to introduce Snuzzy.com to the world, ransacking the Internets like a bunch of furry, out of control puppies in attempt to bring you some of the cutest and fuzziest stuff on the web.

I was looking back at the first post (and this one went up before the actual site launched, sort of a test run of sorts, I guess) on March 27, 2008, and there wasn’t a single image involved. Yikes…

Wow. That sucked. And the first actual image to hit the snuzzosphere? Um ,well… it was this one, posted on April Fool’s Day, which (appropriately) is Snuzzy’s official date of birth:

Yeah, that’s right. Another beauty. Things do take a little time to get going, but it wasn’t long before Snuzzy.com was attracting some attention and getting some hits. The first major success was this post, 25 Bits of Snuzz to Improve Your Health, with almost 10,000 pageviews on May 29. To date, this post has been viewed over 70,000 times!



And as things go in cyberspace, we’ve had some other winners, and some real losers on Snuzzy. That’s the fun part about blogging cuteness – you never really know what’s going to strike a chord and what’s not.

For the rest of the week, I’ll be re-posting some of my favorites (both the popular and the unpopular ones) and encourage you to send me suggestions for posting. As you browse back over the snuzz from the past year, feel free to send me links to posts that you really enjoyed this past year!

As always, thanks for tuning in and sharing your thoughts and images with me, and for telling your friends about Snuzzy.com!

Launching into year number two with a promise to keep you pleasantly bombarded with cute and fuzzy collisions, I remain,

Very snuzzily yours,

Snuzzy
