I can’t believe it, but 1 year ago today, Jetcomx as we know it was born. Back then, the site was more plain than vanilla ice-cream…in a cup. We were lucky to get 70 unique visitors in a week. We’ve definitely come a long way since that first post of ours. In the time since then, we’ve been featured on Digg’s front page a few times, migrated to 3 different servers, gave away some free gear, interviewed up and coming artists, picked up some new writers, and much, much more. Who knows what the next 365 days will bring?
