I’ve been quiet. Way too quiet. So quiet that it perplexes me that anyone even visits the site. I guess the number of visitors we get each day is a testament to how wonderful you—and the photos you upload—all are.
So what happened? Well, the site was launched and we did nothing to keep you interested. Sure, I visit the several times every day and look at pretty photos, but as the creator I have a responsibility.
I have every intention to change and as a first step towards being a community manager I’m going to feature three desks every Friday and explain why each desk was featured. You can agree or disagree with me. As a bonus I’ll post some—at least to me—interesting facts or stats about the site.
Without further ado, here are this Friday’s featured desks and the motivation behind the decision to feature them.
Friday Features
Textwriting

First out is Alexander S’ desk, Textwriting. I featured this desk because it reeks of activity. I love the contrast between the (right amount of) mess, the sleek lines of the aluminum MacBook and the orange snack. It just speaks to me.
Home Office

Chris Doss has blessed us with this amazing photo of his home office. It looks like such an inviting place to work—clean without being boring. Absolutely love the stone wall!
The Home Workspace

Ok, I’m going to cheat a little here. I didn’t feature John Manoogian III‘s desk today. Had I known a few days ago that I’d be writing this post I wouldn’t have featured it back when I did. Anyway, modern workplace meets Saw makes for a featured desk.
Friday Stats—the Commenters
This week I give you the commenters—the members who have posted the largest amount of comments since the start (Oct 2008).
- Stefan Kohler (118 comments).

I’m embarrassed (but not surprised) that the illustrious Mr Kohler is in the lead. Xander has a weird last name.
I hope you enjoyed this Friday’s post. There are more new features and events coming.
