Less Will Hopefully Someday Be More . . .

The end of this week will mark the second anniversary of this entity that is 2719 Hyperion. It has been an amazing, fun and tremendously satisfying two years. So it is with decidedly mixed emotions that I announce that 2719 Hyperion will become a significantly less active place than it has been these past twenty-four months.

My work on 2719 has taken me in many directions, and inspired me to pursue a number of projects independent of efforts here and on the recently launched blog Boom-Pop! One project in particular has evolved to the point of demanding more of my time and resources, necessitating a reduction in the amount of content I am able to produce on a consistent basis.

But worry not--you will not see a blog devoted to grocery shopping appearing here any time soon. 2719 Hyperion is by no means closing up shop. I will continue to post here as time and opportunity permit, but just not on the near daily schedule that the readership here has grown accustomed to.

To all my friends, fellow bloggers and the countless readers I have never met, I send my thanks. Your support and encouragement has always been heartening and very much appreciated. I hope to be able to share the fruits of my current labors with you sometime in the near future, so please stay tuned.

I'll miss the daily doses, but I can't wait to see what you have in store down the line! I am sure it will keep me just as intrigued.

2719 Hyperion has long been my favorite blog, not just Disney blog, for some time now. I haven't commented before, but thought this would be a good opportunity to thank you for all the time and effort you have put into your postings. I have been enjoying Boom Pop and your appearances on The WDW Radio Show. I hope you continue with both those endeavors as well 2719 Hyperion when you have time to post and whatever else you have in store for us.

Best of luck with your new projects. I'll miss the daily posts, but look forward to what you have in store.

And congrats on the second anniversary.

I will be excited to hear about any new projects - both 2719 and Boom Pop have become real addictions for me. Best of luck and thanks again for all you do.

Thanks for everything... so far!

I never could figure out how you had time to do it daily. I thought maybe you had an evil twin stashed away somewhere. You've left me no choice but to get more of my Disney fix from George.

I know from my own blog that a just posting a couple times a week is a rather time consuming proposition... I can't imagine every day! Dude, take a break!

Menick said...

Two years of great stuff. Good luck in the future.

ghasty said...

Thanx for a great 2 years...have loved your work here and looking forward to new projects.

Stephen said...

Of the really great Disney blogs I check, yours has easily been the most regularly-updated...so I think I can forgive you. Good luck, and I look forward to future posts!

Chris said...

Thanks for all of the great work. Always enjoy your posts. Best of luck on the new endeavors.

I have long been amazed at how you could keep up the pace and still provide incredibly unique, suer-cool stuff. Thanks, Jeff. Please feel good about slowing down the post frequency. They'll still be jewels . . .

Speaking of Jewel: about this grocery shopping blog . . .

It has been very enjoyable reading your blog and I have to admit a reduction in posts will seem like a giant void. On the other hand, I look forward to what you will deliver next. I have enjoyed Boom-Pop since you first mentioned it and continually count your appearances on the WDW Radio Show as the most informative and enjoyable. Good luck on your next endeavor.

Hi Jeff.

Being the owner of three different blogs myself I know how hard it can be to post on a regular basis.

It's been a pleasure helping you out in the past and I hope we can continue to collaborate in the future.

I wish you well in your endeavors and will continue to check in on a regular basis.

Best of luck!

Understood. Keep posting as much as you can, though!

Thanks for having such a great site!

Wow . . .

Thanks everyone for the very kind responses you have taken the time to post here. As I said in the post, your support and encouragement is both heartening and very much appreciated!

This is a truly sincere demonstration of what a wonderful community we have become and I am both humbled and proud to be a part of it.

Thanks all!

Hey Jeff:
Best of luck with the new projects. I've been coming to 2719 Hyperion for a little over a year, and it's the most informative blog I read. Thanks for the great job on this and your various WDW Radio segments.

Jeff,

I hope you still will make your appearances on the WDW radio show. They are always my favorite segments!

Jay Amabile said...

Jeff, you got to do what you got to do. Hats off to one of the best most insightful Disney blogs on the internet.

Matt said...

Keep the great work up Jeff!

Jennifer said...

Even if you only post periodically, I hope you'll always keep this blog open and active; it is a tremendous resource, and it would be sorely missed if you were to ever shut it down. Thank you for all the work you've done and for the work that I hope you'll be able to continue to do.
