Blog Blast from the Past
Michael Kwan reached a milestone today: he posted the 1,500th post on his blog. (As you may recall, Michael was the first blogger to comment on my blog.)
If my count is right, this is my 1,331st post. Of course, 1337 would be elite, but 1331 has some nice symmetry to it.
Anyway, on that note, I figured I’d take a little Blog Blast from the Past and take a second look at some of my early blog posts. And, by “second look”, I mean that I’m going to link to those early posts and not add any additional commentary, because that would be too much like work.
First, I started out with the obligatory “Hello World!” post. And, if you thought I was kidding about not providing some insightful commentary on these older posts, well, you thought wrong because we’re moving on…
The next day I posted a picture of a tree in my backyard, calling the post “Look Upward!” Just yesterday, I took a stereographic image of that same tree but I can’t upload pictures here now and you all complained you don’t have 3D glasses anyway, so it’s pretty much a moot point either way.
The same day–yes, you got a bonus of two posts in one day on my second day of blogging–two for two, I suppose–I posted about “Blogging for Money“. And you thought I was going to add something insightful about this post, didn’t you? Again, you thought wrong.
The next day, two posts again. Not three. Oh well. And why am I commenting on that? Anyway, back then the iPhone was newish, and I had a post on the iPhone Powder that was on sale on eBay. I also posted an old fish story.
I skipped the next day of posting and didn’t post again until the 18th, when I posted about Babylon 5.
That was followed the next day by a post on John Chow being right about one thing in particular…
The next day I wrote about blog promotions.
The following day, I posted my “Look Downward!” photo of the same tree mentioned above, only at the ground level. I also have a stereographic picture of that I took a couple or more weeks ago. But, again, moot point.
I could go on, but you’re bored and I’m hungry and lunch is here, so we all know what that means.



1500 sure is a milestone!
Forget money- I’m blogging for bacon!
