"Courage and perseverance are important if one is to run anything resembling a news organization...the folks at theOtaku.com have demonstrated themselves to have ample quantities of both."
~ TCJ (The Comics Journal)
"A couple years of experience in the Otaku circle have taught me at least one good lesson--to trust Adam."
~ myO member
"Adam is actually a decently accomplished troll."
~ Allamorph
"The scale of Adam's cunning genius is truly frightening."

Do you notice anything...different...on theOtaku today?
My goal for this coming week is to OBSESS about theOtaku's speed.
I'll keep you all updated on my progress as I run cool experiments and the like.
We're running some slightly unattractive ads on theO and will probably keep them up for a long time moving forward. Need to weather the storm
(We'll have some beautiful FUNi campaigns starting in March though.)
I saw Utada "Effin" Hikaru the other day in concert, it was wonderful.
Google cluttered my Gmail with their silly "Buzz" service - I'm trying to get rid of clutter in life not increase it. Instant deactivation (there's a link all the way at the bottom of your Gmail to do it).

2010 has been a tough year (to say the least) in terms of ad sales.
I tried to run a new ad but it didn't go over so well
Dark times these are.
The last week, every single day, any time I logged into my email I unsubscribed from all newsletters I received.
I'm now unsubscribed from about 95% of them though a few new ones do trickle in once in a while.
WOW, it makes a huge difference.
It's the best feeling in the world logging into your email and not seeing a ton of clutter that's all vying for your attention.
This is an exercise I highly recommend.
