Blog Anniversary
I really do not pay much attention to blog anniversary's or blogiversary's until I read Zoot's post about her blogiversary. Then it dawned on me that my blog anniversary had passed way back in August. I have blogged on and off since August of 2002. After reading her post it occured to me that I had not posted my blogging story. So here it goes. Being the geeks that we were my husband and I attended a conference in Des Moines IA called Gnomedex. I think it was the 2nd year that they had the conference and back then TechTV was still techtv and had not been purchased by G4 and trashed. We drove from our home at the time in Moline Illinois to Des Moines IA which is like driving to Tuscaloosa from Huntsville or Vice Versa. Back to the story at hand here.We heard one of the speakers named Evan Williams speak. He was the CEO of Pyra Labs which started Blogger. Anyway, we thought what the heck start a blog it can't be that hard to do. Of course not everybody had a blog back then most people never heard of a blog back then. So after the weekend was over we drove back home on promptly started a blog. Of course we did not know what we were going to post just that we were doing something that was not mainstream yet. We then continued to watch blogging community explode and change. It is kind of neat to see and hear how it all started. I still do not know what, when or if I am going to post daily. I do not always post daily or weekly for that matter but when the urge strikes I make a post every now and then.
