JASON: Tomorrow is the third anniversary of the launch of 404 Media. If you haven’t been paying attention to us yammering on about this on the podcast and in our emails, you can celebrate with us at our party in New York in a few weeks.
Anniversaries are a good time to take stock of things, but they always seem to sneak up on us. I don’t think we’ll have much of a public post this year on the actual anniversary, but maybe some public celebrating closer to the party and panel we’re throwing.

These are going to be disorganized, off the dome thoughts, but a few things:
