I launched camelsounds.com tonight, a tracker for zZounds.com. Full details on that and all the other updates we included with this release can be found here.
The web (or just those behind WAOTD) has officially named camelcamelcamel web app of the day. This is probably the closest I’ll come to winning an Oscar.
*Basks in it*
I’ve been so busy farming camels lately that I failed to notice that Stashbox hit 12,000 registered users recently. That’s a lot of people who put their files in it.
It has been a long but pretty much always fulfilling road – today camelcamelcamel celebrated its first birthday.
I wrote about it on the c3 blog, checkeraut here.
Aside from some very windy motorcycle riding across the Bay Bridge (and then getting lost in the city for a while), I had a good time picking through Amoeba’s records this eve with Brennan and Christophe.

There are two El Toyanese taco trucks on Harrison street: one at 14th, next to Best Buy, and one at 19th, near a school of some sort. I’ve only eaten at the latter, but both are owned by the same company so one can assume a shared deliciousness.
I usually get the veggie burrito; my friends stick to the tacos (carne asada, veggie, etc). Everyone leaves satisfied.
Here’s a photo from my last visit:
Notice how they did not skimp on spicy / pickled carrots!
On December 7, 2008 I posted about camelcamelcamel hitting 1000 users. Today (March 19, 2009) we hit 2000 users and have 4 sites in the camel network.
I didn’t think my simple little throw-away project would turn into something useful, but I’m glad it did. That could not have happened without the contributions of Cosmic Shovel, for which I am eternally grateful.
Tonight we launched our Overstock.com price tracker, camelstock.com. I like it. That bar at the top is just too sexy.
As always, thanks to Nithya for testing the shit out of this release.
