On this day in the year of 2007, Nuffnang started off as – in our co-founder Timothy Tiah’s words, a “leetle dotcom” – in a humble office in Penang.

Today, we’re celebrating our third anniversary together with all 130,000 of you bloggers registered with Nuffnang! WOOHOO!

In just the short span of three years, we’ve expanded our network to serve four countries – Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines and Australia – and the best is yet to come! We couldn’t have done any of this without all of you. Thank you so very much to each and every one of you; your support is what keeps us going and growing every day.

Over the years, we’ve had quite a few events which gave us memories we hold dear to our hearts, like our first bloggers’ meet in Penang…

We’re really proud that Nuffnang has become such a great community along the way, and it’s always awesome to see more and more new faces at our events. Group hug!

As the numbers of bloggers registering with Nuffnang continue to grow to unbelievable numbers every day, our little family of Nuffies has grown too! Barely two years ago, the Nuffnang Malaysia staff looked like this:

Today, our family has grown to include over 40 people spread out over 4 countries!

Nuffnang Blog Award 2009

Pretty awesome, no? We’ve truly come a long way from where we first started. Here’s to a great three years of ‘firsts’, and may there be many more to come! Speaking of which, we might be planning something big which would be another first for us, but you’ll just have to stay tuned to find out what it is. :)

In the meantime, you could send us a birthday card (ahem), or anything at all so that we can post it up on our Nuffnang Footprints Wall! We always get very excited whenever we receive something from our bloggers :)

Before we start stuffing ourselves with birthday cakes, thank you once again, and have a great year ahead everyone!
