Belated Birthday Wish

Did anyone else realise that the website's second birthday passed without notice?
The ITA website was formally launched on the 1st March 1998. Since that date the site has recorded more than 18,000 hits - an average of 24 per day. A hit is recorded each time someone visits the website. Over the last few months that figure has been closer to 40 hits per day.
The busiest section on the ITA website is the Green Room Gossip area. Altogether there have been more than 2,300 messages posted on the message boards; they're currently growing at something like 5 posts per day!
All this has been accomplished with great assistance from the ITA committee and Informed Technology but, i'm ashamed to say, very little support from most clubs. To date, i've only seen three club newsletters that have listed the ITA web address. I'm yet to see a club reproduce the address in a programme for a show.

Two lines on each programme or newsletter; it's not much to ask. My birthday wish for the site is that more clubs will get directly behind this endeavour and support it.
Cheers
Grant

As a programme compiler I am ashamed to say that I have not featured the ITA site on a theatre programme!!!!!!!!!
Suitably chastened I shall do so IMMEDIATELY, in fact just as soon as I have disconnected!
AND I'd forgotton the second birthday too, as did the LINK producers, shame on us.
