The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

It was one year ago today that John and MordEth launched this message board. We have had a very successful year--nearly 15,000 posts covering 2,139 topics. We have 302 members.

Thank you to John and Mordeth, and thank you to all of us who contribute to the Talking Machine Forum!

Aaron

This board is amazing and here is to many years to come. Thanks for everything!

Paul, George...I really wonder where the time went, also. It seems hard to believe that it’s been a year since we moved to our new home at forum.talkingmachine.info. And it’s been a pretty busy year—14,825 posts, 2,140 topics and 303 members.

To everyone who has participated in making this forum what it is with their presence and posts: I know I say this all the time, but thank you again for making this forum what it is. I’ve been fortunate to get to know quite a few of you, and I’ve been quite impressed by what we have accomplished so far.

In the past year we have had 17,884 unique visitors from 78 countries, and use 1 DVD (4 GB) worth of transfer per month. In my opinion, for a hobby such as this, these are pretty staggering numbers.

So give yourselves a round of applause.

Also, if anyone is interested, here’s the map:

And the top 10 countries by visit count are:

1. United States
2. Australia
3. United Kingdom
4. Germany
5. Canada
6. Norway
7. Netherlands
8. Sweden
9. Czech Republic
10. Chile

Let’s make 2010 another great year for collecting and discussing phonographs!

Anyone we know here from Chile? I didn't know we had South American collectors here.

Yes the year really has gone fast. I've enjoyed my time here. Thanks alot John and David!
