Around Valentine’s Day three years ago co-founders Kill-Tacular-Tron and Swank-mo-tron had an idea to start a website for them and their friends to share all the geek stuff they loved with the people of the Interwebs. It didn’t take long before the URL bigshinyrobot.com was snagged and Kill-Tacular-Tron threw together a website – and thus Big Shiny Robot! was born!
Flash forward three years, three redesigns of the site, a more than quadrupled staff size, over two million page views, and monthly visits easily in the hundreds of thousands, and here we are today. Big Shiny Robot! is reaching a world-wide audience now, but we still are proud to maintain our Utah local base.
BSR! would like to thank all of you loyal readers who stop by the site, check out our podcasts and forum, and have just supported us over the years. We all love what we do here, and hope you’ve all enjoyed stopping by BSR! over the years. We have a lot more in store for you as we continue to grow, and we’re looking forward to the ride!
