While I was compiling some numbers for the latest issue of the ZimmNews which should be going out tomorrow (email me if you want to be added to the list) I noticed that I’m up to 45 photo album sets in my Flickr account. They contain a total of over 7,500 photos that have been viewed almost 45,000 times! Those numbers just keep on growing. That’s going back to my first one at the Indy 500 in 2005 so it’s 2 years worth of online photos related to mostly agricultural activities. That’s only a fraction of the photos I’ve taken in that time for our clients and sponsors though.

That made me check out my YouTube account where I’ve got 45 videos uploaded. I don’t know what the collective total views of all of them are but the very first one I uploaded of Tanya Tucker in the first Michael Peterson/New Holland Celebrity Tractor Race has been viewed almost 14,000 times so far.

What does that all mean? I’m in the online conversation and when you consider the 3,500 posts here on AgWired, 124 episodes of the weekly ZimmCast and who knows how many audio and video files you can’t find anywhere else I’d say we’re making sure agriculture and agricultural marketing is getting noticed.
