    Hey guys! I just wanted to let you know what my website www.ps3center.net finally got into Google news as a Playstation 3 news source! I`m making this thread not to brag, but to tell you guys anything is possible if you put the effort into it.

    I opened ps3center.net 1 year ago as a hobby. I quickly noticed it could go somewhere so I started putting more work into it. As time passed I realized I spent a couple xxx$ on designs, coding etc.

    A couple of months ago I got accepted into DMOZ.

    Today I found out I got into Google news.

    For the past 2 weeks I have been receiving emails from major game publishing companies, offering me to start reviewing games for them ( free games :) ).

    Now this was my 4th attempt to get into google news. I was rejected 3 times earlier. As the months passed, I invested in a larger staff and am now working on making ps3center.net one of the largest PS3 related websites yet! :)

    This made my day! So it is possible to get into those .. just aslong as you put the effort into it!

    That's really quite something and a little gloating is in order. What's the link to the google news article?
