Bridger.us/mini (along with my much smaller main weblog bridger.us) has had 1,003,102 hits since it's launch on 09/15/02. In fact there's been 310,000 hits in February alone. While it's nothing compared to the large MINI portals out there it's still very exciting to finally get there. Thanks everyone for contributing comments over the last several months.
As alwys if you have any feedback or suggestions to improve the site don't hesitate to let me know!
<p>For all you web developers out there that say – great one million hits. How about unique visitors? Well lets just say it's a bit shy of one million at this point :)</p>
<p>Ah. There's the disclaimer. ;-)</p>
<p>Gabe, great site. Congratulations on a very tastefully done and very sucessful resource for all MINI aficionados such as myself.</p>
<p>So I should stop "hitting" you eighty times a day? Is that throwing off your stats? I'm sorry! :)</p>
<p>Keep hitting vlm!</p>
<p>I didn't see the balloons and confetti, so I guess I wasn't your 1,000,000 customer served..</p>
<p>Maybe I should limit myself to one hit a day?
Gabe, your site is wonderful, and it saves me at least the price of a magazine subscription…you do all the research and share the latest info with us, so I don't have to seek it out! That is priceless.</p>
<p>Congratulations Gabe!! It's a significant milestone for a great site. Thanks for all of the important info.</p>

<p>In many ways, yours is the best and most tasteful Mini site out there. Congrats Gabe! </p>
<p>P.S. I'm sure that I count for at least 100,000 hits in February alone!</p>
<p>It can only go up from here. Thanks, your service is greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>Congrats Gabe! Well done site and well deserved milestone.</p>
<p>Am I the last to see that you have a shopping area now too? Check out the great merchandise!</p>
<p>You're definately one of the first 🙂 I set it up using CafePress kind of just for fun. But I also figured it would be a good way to help pay for some of the costs of the website while offering some cool stuff for people who may want it.</p>
<p>Wow…you even have a housewares department now. You can be the coolest kid at the Mini drives with your own BRIDGER.US/MINI lunchbox! :)</p>
<p>I just updated some of the designs so if anyone is at all interested you might want to take another look. This designing your own tshirt stuff is really addicting!</p>
<p>Cool. I like the new Mini outline graphic. Will the travel mug fit in the cupholder of a Mini Cooper without hitting the switch panel? :)</p>
<p>I ordered a t-shirt, and will probably go back for another for my nephew…just as soon as I can find out his size. Love that lunchbox too! And the hoodie…too many choices!</p>
<p>Drew – I'm not entirely sure if it will or not. It looks to be about the same size as the official MINI version but I probably won't know until I get one in my MINI.
Donna – Thanks! I think you're the first (other than myself). Mine should be here Monday!</p>
<p>Hey Gabe, any thoughts about setting up some kind of "marketplace" where other owners can sell or trade mini stuff?</p>
<p>Good idea Jim. I suppose I could set up an fairly simple page where we could list local items for sale or trade. Would anyone else be interested in this? I know I have a stock Cooper exhaust system that I don't need :)</p>
<p>I've got a few things as well, mostly odds and ends though.</p>
<p>Sounds like another project for me, Gabe.</p>
<p>LOL – get on it!</p>
