3rd Year Blogiversary
This month marks the third year in which I’ve maintained an online journal. In the past three years of blogging, I’ve probably written more consistently than I ever have, and in doing so have shared memories of my youth, written about my day-to-day adventures and misadventures, posted photographs and poetry, expressed myself politically and creatively, and stepped atop the soapbox on occasion.
I’ve learned some basis HTML code along the way, although I still have a great deal to learn in that department. I’ve had four site adresses, three site designs, three hosts, and banned over 1,000 or so spam addresses.
The three years of blogging has also given me the opportunity to discover many interesting and creative online journalists from around the world, some of which I am fortunate to call friend. Some of the friends that I met three years ago are still around and blogging stronger than ever. Some friends have long since moved on to other things, while new friendships have been made. Blogging mirrors life in that sense.
