Dear Nuffnangers,

The Singaporean community has grown by leaps and bounds. We are now 2 and half months old and have achieved several milestones.

These are some of them:

1. Our ranks have grown significantly. Nuffnangers now number 1800 in Singapore.

2. We have served paid advertisements onto hundreds of local blogs. Advertisers include big names such as Nike Singapore to promising local start-ups, such as Hitchoo.com and Pandora’s Box. The first few cheques have already been sent out.

Some of you have also received an email regarding an upcoming campaign by a bank of global repute. This campaign is set to launch on the 29th of July across over 300 blogs, and will be running for a month.

These blogs were chosen by the advertiser according to relevancy.

There are also a number of other interesting deals in the month of August. All this is a result of your continued support and the Nuffnang team’s efforts. We will continue to work hard securing deals and enriching Nuffnangers.

3. Earlier in the month, we also announced that our cash out amount was to be reduced to $50.

4. In line with our vision of forging a community amongst our members, we are also pleased to announce Nuffnang Singapore’s first blogger event. On the 9th of August 2007, National Day we will be hosting 250 bloggers, press and advertisers for an exclusive screening of Rush Hour 3 at GV VivoCity. It will be a fun filled event with goody bags, contests and food.

Everybody who attends the event will also be given a sneak preview of Nuffnang 2.0. An overhauled and improved platform with a streamlined identity that will also see us revealing the design of our new logo.

Further details of this event will be provided shortly.

5. I will also like to take this opportunity to give credit to the Nuffnang technical team, who have worked behind the scenes to improve the technical capabilities of our site. To name some, an integrated helpdesk which u can find at http://nuffnang.com.sg/helpdesk/index.php, improved and optimized loading of ads, flash and video ads capabilities, and the enhancement of our backend which unfortunately, the public does not get to see but is integral to our operations.

Timothy, Arysan, Firdauz, Lee Meng, Victor and Lance, thank you for your hard work so far. Let us move forward as a team to drive more value for our bloggers and advertisers.

I thank all Nuffnangers for their continued patience and support. As usual, I maintain my open door policy to any Nuffnanger who cares to get in touch. Do allow me some time to reply as the schedule is starting to get packed up.

Best Regards,

Ming
