Hey, We’re a Year Old!

 

Bleeding Heart Libertarians is one year old today!

When we started this blog a year ago, we never imagined it would take off in the way it did. In fact, a fair number of us probably never imagined that we’d see our first birthday.

As it turns out, though, the level and quality of engagement here has just blown us away. We don’t post as much as most other blogs – only 278 posts in the last year. But those posts generated close to half a million pageviews, and close to 9,000 comments. And, maybe I’m biased, but I think the quality of discussion in our comment thread is one of the best around.

So thanks to all of our readers for helping to make this blog a success. And thanks to Aira Loren Burkhart for designing our new logo!

We hope you’ll stay with us for the coming year. We’ve got exciting things planned, including our Symposium on Libertarianism and Land, some exciting new guest-bloggers, and a few more surprises that we’ll tell you about soon!

In the meantime, take a little trip down memory lane with our top five most-viewed posts:
