Up Dharma Down & Tumblr. 2 years later…
Hi Everyone!
Today, August 30 2011, marks the 2nd year anniversary of Up Dharma Down’s Tumblr page!
It’s hard to believe that 2 years ago an idea became a reality, and one of the most involved online communities was born.
Created by a fan, for the fans, Up Dharma Down’s tumblr page continues to be a place where both the fans and the band themselves can come together in collective space and celebrate what all have in common…The Music!
Here is a timeline of how it all began!
- August 30 2009 - The site was born. It was a Sunday, and site creator and Up Dharma Down fan Bel spent her entire day listening to Bipolar. She was tinkering with the then-unpopular Tumblr. She was already following a few fan sites, then thought why not create one for Up Dharma Down where she as well as other fans can post favorite videos, pictures, fan arts etc.
- October 8th 2009 - The site’s Tumblarity started picking up. For those of you who were on Tumblr as early as 2009, you know what Tumblarity means. The site started from 6 and went to 114 overnight.
- October 12th 2009 - Armi posted about the site on Twitter!
- January 15 2010 - The first Tumblr meetup. It was at that month’s Terno Inferno at Cafe Saguijo. Who among you guys had the chance to grab one of those pins. :)
- January 23rd 2010 - Dharma-fied site! Site Admin Bel was so inspired because Armi mentioned the Tumblr site for the first time at a gig the night before, she revamped and Dharma-fied the whole site. :)
- April 15th 2010 - Tumblr page reaches 1,000 followers!
- April 25th 2010 - UdD Tumblr page welcomes Mayee as one of it’s Admins! Bel have known Mayee since 2006. She’s been a fan of the band since 2005.
- July 20th 2010 - UdD Bassist Paul Yap joins the Tumblr page that eventually led to the Tumblr page’s integration with Up Dharma Down’s official Facebook and Twitter page.
- December 27th 2010 - UdD Tumblr page welcomes Tony Rago of LIFE2short Productions officially becomes a page admin. Tony joining the site gave the fans a wider scope as he represents Up Dharma Down fans outside of the Philippines. His post about the band being featured at Metromix.com helped the band’s official Facebook page gain more non-Filipino followers.
- April 27th 2011 - Tumblr page reaches 5,000 followers!
- June 3rd 2011 - The second trailer to for the first fan made documentary of Up Dharma Dharma Down, A Week In Metro Manila, was released on the Tumblr page. The film represents a collaborative effort of not only the band, but several of the page admins (Tony, Bel, & Mayee).
- August 15 2011 - Tumblr page reaches 6,000 followers and continues to grow!
Going forward we will continue to put fans first and provide posts and information that all will enjoy and share together. We hope you enjoy viewing the posts as much as we love posting them.
The World is Our Playground…and this is just the beginning!
