Still Blogging After All These Years
April 23, 2003: First blog post.
Blogger has changed a lot since then. There was no easy way to display photos, no provision for comments, and all blogspot-hosted blogs carried advertising.
And the blogging community has grown from a tiny hamlet where everybody knows everybody into a huge metropolis where you don't necessarily even know your near neighbors. I'm finding it hard to keep up with lately. If blogging and blog-reading occupy more time than gardening, what will I write about? Does it matter what I write about if nobody else has the time to read it? Or would that be a good thing, because then I could go back to just chronicling the days' events without trying to make it interesting to others? Will people still be blogging five years from now?
But I'll tell ya one thing that hasn't changed in five years - real-life Neighbor C is still a thorn in my side. Just when my rhododendrons had grown large enough to hide most of his kids' swingset, he moved the swingset.
