Back in the day, people would find websites mostly through Google or word of mouth.
Now, we get a surprising number of new users from social media! Pinterest and Twitter are pretty high on the list, from what I can tell.
Anyway, I'm curious: how did you find Hellobee?

@Mrs. Sunglasses: I should have put an option for, "I was a blogger on Weddingbee"!

i joined last december. i was googling something, and the first result was a hellobee post. i used to read weddingbee religiously a couple years ago when i was planning my wedding, so i was so excited to find hellobee!

I was on the TTC boards at WB and someone posted about HB and I made my way over!
Huge fan of the user interface vs WB which was a big draw.

@mrbee: i don't know if this what @hellobeeboston meant, but i feel like hellobee is much cleaner looking and simpler to use. i like the layout much better!

@Mrsdaredevil: Then you won't mind watching Charlie and Oliver every other weekend?

@mrbee: yeah, prob not the right choice of words - I like the ease of navigation, it's very clean and fresh looking... Like when a site/blog is getting mapped out with wireframes it's a good UI design, you know? I like.

I was invited by a TTC friend (jennimac!!) on WB while it was in beta I started posting more regularly when I got pregnant this time. Love it!

@hellobeeboston: Ah ok. Thanks for your kind words!
@Mrsdaredevil: If you're not willing to watch your step-children on weekends, then I kind of question the sincerity of your marriage to Mrs. Bee. No offense.

WB!
I still remember the days where the hive would buzz the Bees about starting a WB but for parents!

@regberadaisy: Yah that was less than ideal because we were going through two miscarriages at the time.

@mrbee: in retrospect I feel so bad about the nagging!!! 
But know that it's only because you & Mrs. Bee created such a awesome community that we wanted the same environment for the next phase of our life!

I selected WB and word of mouth...because I heard about it from my WB friends on Twitter.

Almost all of us "May Babies 2012" came from weddingbee. We were cross-posting for a couple weeks and then we all agreed to make the full switch here. So glad we did!

Someone from WB told me about HB having a FB page, not sure how they found out. So, I stalked that and waited until the first day I could sign up when it was still in beta.

I chuckled when I saw 2 votes for "I am married to Mrs. Bee". Hehehe. I've been following Mrs. Bee on Xanga from when she first created WeddingBee, so of course I was super excited about HelloBee, even before I was pregnant!

The friend who initially told me about weddingbee invited me when it was in beta. I didn't start posting more often until just before LO was born and the WB spring babirs thread died (because everyone moved over here). I so prefer it, and feel like the community here is more adult (if that makes sense).

I came from WB. One of the ladies from our Summer/Fall 2011 babies thread posted about hellobee and I requested an invite that day.
@bpcmarj: I agree that the atmosphere here is much more adult!

I was a hostess on WB and found out through other hostesses there when HB was in beta!
