Words cannot describe what has happened here at 1DayLater yesterday. Here’s a clue..

Lifehacker - tips and tricks about getting things done, including productivity and useful software tools

But first,

This is what happened the day before

  • woke up
  • Had my cereal (Weetabix)
  • Made cuppa (Yorkshire tea)
  • Went to office
  • Discovered this nice little article on Webworkerweekly
  • Checked the site stats

I THOUGHT- “Oh 60 signups this morning - cool”

I SAID - “Here David, check this out man, 60 signups not bad. Nice article too, the editor really seems to have done her homework”

The next day

  • Woke up
  • Had some toast
  • Made a cuppa (No Yorkshire so chose second rate Typhoo)
  • Went to office
  • Read my emails
  • Checked the site stats

The day lifehacker noticed us - shown on google analytics

I THOUGHT “pnaaarrf?!”

I SAID “Davrnod….pnaaarf?!”

Turns out this is what happens when you get noticed by lifehacker. Lifehacker are one of the worlds most influential sites giving daily tips on how to ‘get things done’. They currently rank in the top 1000 sites worldwide, very cool indeed

And don’t be fooled, those other ‘little blips’ were actually also epic days including when we were featured on Techcrunch Europe. They’ve just been dwarfed by Lifehacker!

So a big welcome to all our new users. Please get in touch if you have any questions or just want to say hello :)

Take care,

Paul and David King
