April was an eventful month for The Lounge. We started by adding a number of new advertisers including CodeSmtih, Data Dynamics and Manning Publications. I am proud that we continue to have top notch advertisers who offer products that we believe in.

I also launched the new front-end for the site completely written in MVC and NHaml, which I blogged about here.

The sites in the .NET room have been on a rampage lately, last month the room hit 1.35 million impressions a 12% growth over last month (adding devlicious contribute to that growth so it wasn't all organic).

The small publishers room continues to grow as well, and this month we are adding four new members to the room:

I have known Josh Holmes for awhile, he is a great guy and I am thrilled to have him on board.

Al Nyveldt is a core member of the BlogEngine.NET team.

Rob Bazinet is one of the .NET and Ruby editors on the excellent InfoQ site.

Nate Kohari is one of the people I met over Twitter and the creator of Ninject, a dependency injection framework that is gaining in popularity.

If you have a blog that you think would be a good fit for The Lounge or would like to advertise in one of our rooms please drop me an email.

In the next month I hope to continue to grow both of these rooms, and we will also be launching the new Ruby Room.
