$1.23 Million would be nice in the spirit of 4/1

Ok, I’m sorry if you popped a champagne and got to celebrating on April 1st when you read about our “Closing of Series A funding with April Fund Ventures“, it’s was a bad April 1st joke. In the spirit of April Fool, the April Fool blog post is almost becoming customary even with traditonal news media site.

So yes, to set the record straight, ”April Fund Ventures” never existed and having $1.23M is our bank account would really be nice, so Happy April’s Fool day.

FYI, are you an investor? We are still pursuing Angels.

Another big news that I would like to share with all our users and you SEO folks is Simplebucket is the most simple photo hosting website on the “internets“! Looks like Google and Yahoo are in agreement here too.

Yahoo search for “simple photo hosting” #1 spot (Double Yes!!!)
