Around this time two years ago, we began the offline test phase of what would later become VivirLatino.com, a project all of us were excited and passionate about, and which had one clear goal in mind: to help fill the void in Latino online media. That passion hasn’t waned one bit in the past two years, and the biggest part of what keeps us going day after day is you! Today, as we celebrate the milestone of the 2000th post on our blog, we want to say thanks to the thousands of you who read us daily, and support us in other ways as well. We love you guys!

All gushing aside, 2000 posts is A LOT of writing. It seems like if it happened, we wrote about it. We’ve live blogged major (and not so major) events, we’ve covered the Latin Grammies and a Democratic debate, we’ve attended protests and rallies, and we’ve even covered elections coast to coast. And even all that doesn’t even scratch the surface of all the chisme, controversy and polemic we’ve covered, and the debates we’ve engaged in — willingly or unwillingly — as a result of it. Phew!

As we approach our second birthday, October 2nd, we’ll be taking a look back on the stories we’ve covered and where they are today. And if you have any favorite posts or stories you’d like us to revisit, please let us know in the comments section.

¡Viva VL!
