Recently, dotTech celebrated its 1 year birthday. Now, dotTech is celebrating its first 1000 members! This just a year and two months after its founding means we have an average of two and a bit new members a day.

Thanks to everyone that has helped build this great community!

Who is the mysterious Locutus? No one knows, but there is an ancient tale that once his true identity is revealed, something big will happen. What? Who knows. The name Locutus is based off of the
Star Trek: The Next Generation character
Jean-Luc Picard.
WELCOME BACK!!! :)
AND….its all or almost all due to YOUR efforts!!
Thanks Ashraf!!! We got -29F now… one of the things to keep me warm is this site!!!! :-)
@haakon: Brrr. It’s a pleasant 46F here.
You earned that 1,000 man/woman army as a result of a great deal of hard work. We’re with you, Ashraf! And your little dog too. If you have one.
Ashraf is back. Yipee!
Let us all stand and give ourselves applause.
@Locutus: Welcome back ashraf , all the best.

Hi Ashraf! Welcome back!!! I hope you’ve a nice winter vacation.
glad to see you back Ashraf!
Ashraf, when will you get back to normal posting? We miss your great articles!
Man, here in my little world in OKC, often my friends think that I am the Geek. Nonsense. You are the Geek of the Week of every week that I turn to and will have no other beside you. (Blasphemy? Perhaps). Other pages (unnamed) have left me high and dry (no help) but you have always found time to fix my problems. I don’t have too many geeking friends and they always get your website from me, but you do a service to the web community that is without match. Thank you for being a friend. I wish you and yours the best of health, wealth and the strength to carry on. Love; Emrys
Many thanks for the anniversary notice, Locutus. It’s nice to see some activity here.
Best

Great to see you back :)
Well, I hope all those here who’re welcoming Ashraf back on the basis of today’s membership announcement pay slightly more attention to, er, Ashraf’s actual reviews. . .
;-)
Anyway. Welcome back, Jean-Luc (posting, fairly clearly, as Locutus.)
As for Ashraf. . .
He’s over there on today’s GOTD review page.
@MikeR: Well to be truthful I never left. I actually wrote this article about 2.5 weeks ago!
Yay Ashraf is back! Thank you so much for all the articles. My eyes popped off my head when I saw you writting again…(sob) now I’m crying…
WE MISSED YOU!
@Locutus:
2.5 weeks?
Are you on a really slow dial-up or something when it comes to uploading?
:-)
@MikeR: No, Ashraf needs to approve all posts before they’re published. Ashraf wasn’t on from late December to yesterday.
Welcome back Ashraf
You deserve all 1000 of the members. I am sure that before we know it you will be sending out an email stating that you are celebrating 2000 members. This is all due to your kind help.
Thanks
Congrats and welcome back!
Welcome Back Ashraf.
Nice, Welcome back.
