Poorbuthappy Colombia Guide anniversary

I started this website around December 1998. So then now must be its 7th birthday! Imagine! I never thought it would become such an active forum.

I hope that in the next year we can make this website even better. I might experiment more with regular cartoons.. Maybe add video. I'll probably upgrade the software and add some new features.

But in the end, the main thing here is all these people discussing Colombia, talking about the country and the people. Keep going. That's what makes this site good.

What about you? When did you first visit this site?

Happy Anniversary This really is one of the best websites around.

Congrats and Thanks Peter PBH is a resource that I truly appreciate. In response to your question; I first visited the site a year and a half ago, read a very well-written post by Desi, lurked for two weeks, and have been a member ever since.

... Definitely one of the best (if not the best) websites on Colombia among those written in the English language.

I don't remember exactly how I found this website, maybe through a link in some other forum or mailing list. I do remember that I didn't join immediately, but rather was a silent lurker for a certain amount of time.

Congrats to Peter and to everybody else involved in this website/community.

Congratulations I don`t post anywhere else. This is the only site that has really caught my attention...I love the dynamics even when it gets a a little crazy and I have made some good friends here. Some times I only read, sometimes I go on a writing frenzy...

Felicitaciones a todos y todas que mantienen esto vivo.
