The day before 2012: 2,000 downloads!
Posted under: The Native Tongue team recently took a little holiday to celebrate 2011′s successes, to reflect on how we came together as a team, and to take a much-needed and highly-anticipated vacation so that we could collectively step back from it all, and to appreciate Native Tongue in its entirety. Sounds a bit like a relationship breakup doesn’t it?
On the contrary, 2011 ended on a particularly high note. After blasting our way through set milestones of 100 downloads, 200 downloads, 500 downloads and then 1,000 downloads, we were proud as punch to publicly proclaim that we spend the majority of our days “playing games”! 
As luck would have it, however, the tail of 2011 (December 31 to be exact) saw an added surprise; Native Tongue blasted its way past 2,000 downloads!
Today, despite being in the most relaxed state since Native Tongue’s inception, the team is super relaxed (most likely due to Christmas festivities and hot-summer new year celebrations), wildly optimistic (can we be anything else?) and believe with-absolute-certainty that the constant goal-kicking and increasing download counts are excellent indicators of a market out there for people who want to make language-learning both easy and fun.
On behalf of the entire Native Tongue team, we wish you a belated Merry Christmas, a happy new year, and hope you all had joyous celebrations with your friends, family and loved ones! Here’s to a another year of kicking major goals and butt!!
Our next goal? 5,000 downloads!
