Year 2009 is a special year for tspot.pl. All of that simply because, this year tspot.pl has been launched, has been completly rebuilt and redesigned. That's the year of trying, testing, making mistakes, increasing traffic and... learning how to write. That's the year, which - I hope - has started something good.
I don't want to write too much... so let's do what we want to do. I'd like to present a little bit of summary and a list of most popular articles from 2009.
Short summary
tspot.pl has been launched in March, 2009. At start it was created in order to present interesting articles associated closely with any of interesting (interesting for us) topics. After few weeks or months... we focused more closely on design, web design, lifestyle and advertising - and we have launched tspot.pl in English as well.
