Vintage Urchin Sticker Giveaway
After reading Lars Johansson's entertaining post on Web Analytics Memorabilia I immediately went for a dig in my sticker pile. [Does everyone have a sticker pile, or is that just me?]
Story: Back in 2001 I worked for a first-generation web analytics vendor called WhiteCross Systems. One day, while researching the competition, I found a vendor called Urchin. They were giving away stickers on their web site, and I like stickers, so I sent away for some. Two weeks later the stickers arrived. I promptly tossed them in my sticker pile and forgot about them for 7 years.
Fast-forward to 2008. Urchin has become Google Analytics. My stickers have acquired retro-cool appeal. I've been hoarding them long enough, so if you'd like a sticker, write to me and I'll mail you one. I have 10 to give away.
[Update, March 19th: My stickers are all gone! The giveaway has ended.]
