I've been paying attention lately to how long people have been hanging around on this BB and it's made me wonder. When did this BB start? Looks to me like the oldest member is (was) Rick. He's got the next person beat by a year, as I see it. So was it just Rick posting all by himself for a year? I thought this place was like a roach motel... once you check in, there's no checking out. :chuckle
So when did allnurses start? How long have you been coming here? Any "original members"?
great site! great history! great people! i love allnurses, and wouldn't trade coming here for any other site because i know it wouldn't top this one! way to go brian! :balloons:
This is a great site. It is funny, educational,and interesting. I too have "turned on" my fellow nursing friends to this site. Now we are all hooked. I love it. Thanks again Gilda
Brian, I think that this site was your destiny. It has enriched so many peoples lives. :)
It is my home page, my passion, my obsession, my life, my WHOLE WORLD--well not quite, but I do come here as often as I can stick my kids in the tub (ha ha).
I am especially grateful for not having to deal with a barrage of "pop-up" ads and other distractions. I would be able to deal with banner ads if it would help bring in some revenue.
1.8 million hits a month should attract some revenue.
Thanks Brian, that was very interesting. I went on-line in about 94, and I vaguely remember world-wide nurse.
Since I did my web site, I have also had e-mails from home health nurses around the world, and that is really cool. Nothing like your traffic here though. I didn't even bother to put a counter on the site!
Keep up the good work. And get those boxer shorts ready for Heather, OK?
Thanks Brian for creating such a wonderful site. I know I'm here everyday, as my husband likes to remind me. :chuckle I'd like to second what Russell said about the pop-up windows, etc.
I enjoy reading everything and commenting where I have something to say. I say alot as my posts # has grown quickly! I'm just starting my nursing journey this summer by taking my pre-req's...with that said, I'm thumbing through a medical dictionary often trying to figure out what some of you are talking about.

Hey, what about it???? Sure, T-shirts, boxer shorts, tank tops, -- with the website, of course, and some of the great trailers you all have attached to your posts... Any plans?
I too am hooked on it; like a good movie, reading just the most recent threads can send my emotions on a roller-coaster ride, educate me, challenge me . . . Great site!
