YGG in the New York Times!
This was one of the most exciting things I have come across in a long time. It was recently brought to my attention that YGG was featured in an article about entrepreneurship on the New York Times! I have had a lot of calls and emails from the article that was featured on Febuary 20, 2008, what a great feeling and accomplishment.
Here is the part of the article we are in:
For those who want to skip the corporate trenches and go right to being the boss, there is younggogetter.com, run by three small-business owners in their 20s.
One is Aaron Kuroiwa, who operates LeTranslator, an online business and legal language translation service, and gives concrete advice — like his recent posting of three steps to becoming more productive.
Also great job Aaron on the awesome article that they read and liked, you got your name in there! You had a great article and i am glad it was recognized appropriately.
HERE is a link to the article if you are looking to read it.
Have a great day everyone and we here at YGG are very excited about the future!

Friggin’ spot on, Aaron! Good luck with LeTranslator! This should give you some well-deserved attention. You know who to look up if you need any work done, buddy!

I never in my life thought I would get mentioned in the NY Times. Congrats to YGG and myself ( I guess ) if that isn’t too presumptuous.

Way to go YGG! That is a great article and well deserved. Glad to see you are back. I had stopped checking it for a while since it was not being updated, but since you are back I will be back to checking often!

Great work, for sure. Here’s hoping it’s the first of many NYT mentions.
An article was written about me in January, but not for good reasons. My domain name was stolen through a GMail security hack and they picked up the story. Still, it was a buzz seeing my name on their website.
Best of luck with YGG.

Wow! Well done, NYT is pretty much the most prestigious publication around!

Awesome. congrats on the publicity. You said someone had to tell you about it….did you notice a big spike in traffic?
March 10th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
There was about 3 times the traffic one day. Was looking around to find out what caused it, then a friend pointed out to me we were in the NYT!
The traffic has stayed up, so I believe we had some people stick around.
That is awesome!
