As of today I’ve been keeping an on-line journal (which is the same as what the kids call “blogging”) for ten years!
You can still read my first entry. Heck, all my old archives are still available.
While I’ve had periods or greater and lesser prolificacy, I’ve never actually gone on hiatus (planned or unplanned); I’ve been posting away at least a few times a month for that whole time. (I think my low-water marks were September 2003 and April 2006, each with only 3 entries, hardly enough to qualify for the Often Webring.)
I’ve been blogging since before the term “Weblog” was coined!
Over the next week or two I’ll be posting reminiscences about the whole journalling experience. I hope you’ll find them of interest.
I don’t plan to close up shop anytime soon, and I hope you’ll keep reading. As much as I say I keep journalling because it’s something I want to do, it doesn’t mean as much without readers, and I appreciate everyone who checks in to see what I’ve got to say.
Thanks for reading!
congratulations!
