1000 posts

The point of my 'It's just the normal noises' post was actually going to be that the post prior to that was my 1000th post. Somehow I guess I forgot while I was writing it.

Anyway, so this is post number 1002. I can still kinda remember when I started this blog. I had no idea what I was doing, or the importance of picking a url that people might actually remember (what the heck is 12ddm?) or anything like that. And I just started by writing stupid stuff that was on my mind. Pretty much like now. Tom was probably the first one to get me thinking about having a blog, and then Brian gave me a nudge and helped me set things up through several emails. Andrew Jones was a big influence as well (unbeknownst to him).

Hmm... time flies, doesn't it.

Tell me about the memorable URL...my first one was "openconversation", long and WHAT WAS I THINKIN'????

Congrats on your 1000+ post; I wonder how many I've written between the two blogs....

Yes it does. Glad you're still going after more than 1K posts. Peace.

Robin,
Who said I was having fun?? ;)

Yes, I remember the 'openconversation.' I never thought it was a bad name, or idea. Thanks for the congrats.

Milton,
Thanks also. Man, you must have about 10,000 posts don't you?

Peace.

Thanks for sharing with us, dear. I claim the fact proudly that some of your posted thoughts I get first hand, but I still look forward to reading!

1000 posts, huh? You should do something to celebrate... like take a vacation somewhere nice. I hear the Dominican Republic is great.

Hmmm...do URLs matter for blogs, really? - once you've got over initial findability, people on the same service just sub; those on others (like me, for example) take advantage of rss for people they want to read :)

Congrats, anyway :)

Great idea MR.

Good point Kel.

Cheers! :)
