As reported in the January Mid Month Apollo Newsletter (see link below), we are celebrating a quarter of a century being on the Internet, the first gay site for older men.

We did not start requiring logging on with a password until September 11, 2000. Since then over 54,000 gay men have registered on this site. Many have either moved on or passed on, but actually we still have members from that month. The two longest active recorded member, Tom and Peter, signed on that very day 21 years ago.

I will not make it another twenty five years, but with your encouragement and support, Apollo Network and I will continue to serve as long as possible.

This week we have a new question to continue our 25th Anniversary theme. Let us know how many years you made your first visit to Apollo Network. If you have trouble remembering, tap on the My Account tab at the top of the screen. Look on that page for the Member Since date. You have been visiting Apollo at least that long.
