Final Thoughts, 2009

From Me to You

Posted by WriteTheCompany.com

Dear Fans, Friends & Followers,

Rumor has it you want more letters in 2010. Just to humor you, I’m going to comply.

There were many surprises since beginning this consumer blog in July. The first happened 12 days after launch. Thousands of visitors found their way to the site when College Humor posted this hotlink: “I never considered pranking things listed on a stock exchange.” Thanks for getting things off to a spectacular start College Humor!

The last surprise came this month courtesy of Pat Kiernan, NY1 news anchor and game show host, who also heads Pat’s Papers. Pat not only posted a favorable review, “Calling Out Companies,” he also tweeted: “Someone give this blogger a book deal!” Still waiting on the book deal, but that was awesome. Thanks Pat!

In between, many of you mentioned Write The Company on blogs, in articles, via tweets and on all sorts of sites. Surprisingly, none of those turned out to be porn sites. Thank you very much for all your support and kind words!

Before you start getting sentimental and teary-eyed, here’s my 2009 Top 10 List of Write The Company Letters:

1) A Whiff of Little Trees

2) This Condom is the ONE

3) Cured by Dr. Scholl’s

4) Playing Percentages with Progresso

5) Is Mountain Dew a Sperm Killer?

6) Crunch Time with Kashi

7) Thirsting for Liquibeads

8) Living the MARBLELIFE

9) In the Words of Merriam-Webster

10) Friends for Mr. Potato Head

Wishing you a happy, healthy and humorous New Year. May all your letters be delivered safely in 2010 and only get stamped on once. Thanks again for reading Write The Company!
