Linkback Recap

We’ve had had a lot of coverage on various news site and blogs over the last day-and-a-half that I haven’t had time to recognize — I’ve been too busy staunching the bus-induced blood from my eyeballs.

Here’s a rundown:

  • Critical Gamer from the UK gave us a very nice writeup and spot on their site
  • Thanks to Alex and Dan Yost for giving us links on their respective blogs!
  • Icrontic’s article has a nice recap of the last two years, and some cgood content about this year, so thanks for that!
  • Shamus Young of The Escapist’s fantastic 20-Sided RPG column sent a good amount of traffic our way–I read it, you should too!
  • The Serious Business posted some very kind words about us, which is good, because Desert Bus is srs bsnss
  • Tweet Gazette–likely inspired by our “trendy” Friday has covered us as well … odd screenshot choice, but I’ll take it!

Thanks so much to everyone that’s covered us. If you know of an outlet that’s covered us who I haven’t mentioned, please send the link to to stuff@desertbus.org

We have now achieved FIVE POINTS without crashing — 40 hours of safe driving!

Does this mean cheap insurance? Probably not — it does mean we’re eight hours closer to beating our own Desert Bus record.
