Reddit is a social news website which allows users to post links that other users can vote up or down to make the link appear higher on the site.  I posted The Subway Art Blog on the “Pics” section of the site.  It received several up votes and over the span of about 12 hours, the attention of 800+ people.

I can’t describe the excitement I felt after I looked at the statistics last night.  I got the idea for the site about six months ago while snapping some random funny photos on the subway and I created the design shortly after.  It was just recently though, that I started posting content consistently.  I’ve put a lot of time into it and have been patiently waiting for my chance to gain a readership.  The bump in traffic has reassured my belief that the site has enormous potential.  Seeing my idea come to fruition has been amazing.  I can’t wait to see the next step in my plan materialize.
