A Wrap Up, A Thank You, and Looking forward to 2011
It’s hard for me to describe just how much this project meant to me this year, especially between March and May. I had just lost my job, was questioning my ability to do anything interesting online and then this site came together. This site helped to restore my confidence, and is a constant reminder that the world was full of interesting and creative people who make building, discussing, (and yes, even selling) stuff on the internet fascinating. I appreciate every single person who visited the Playlist Project in 2010, all 9,764 of you.
Mostly, I really want to thank all of you that shared your lives and submitted playlists this year. I know that the site dropped off quite a bit once I began working full time, and when Hayley went back to school full time, but I’m still extremely proud of what you all helped to build.
More than anything, this site is an incredible resource for good music. Most “Best of 2010” only include albums or songs released in 2010, but the Best of 2010 list from the Playlist Project is made up of the songs and artists that mattered to people in 2010, regardless of when they were first released.
Out of the 660 Songs, these were the Top 3 Artists most frequently selected by playlist contributors —
A special thank you to these 5 contributors who drove the most traffic to their individual playlists —
Beyond these “Top 5”, I really want to thank each and every one of you for sharing your lives on this site.
Without Futher ado, a “Best of 2010 Playlist”. I selected a song from each individual playlist (all 49). Enjoy, and look back on the wonderful site you helped to create and sustain this year. Let’s do it bigger in 2011.
