Nov 26, 2011 - My 10 years of blogging: Reflections, Lessons & Some Stats Too — by Om Malik
It was ten years ago I started blogging in earnest. In the years since, what started as a e-blotter turned into a startup. What was a one-man operation is now a collective effort of many talented people. Here are some reflections, lessons learned and stats too.
Ten years is a long time. Sometimes it is so long that one forgets a lot more than one remembers — like the fact that it I have been blogging for a decade. I would have totally forgotten about the amount of time that has passed, had it not been for (what else) a blog post from Fred Wilson, one of the more engaging and rigorous bloggers on the web. It just so happens he is a venture capitalist, but he would be a great blogger without the VC tag as well.
His post made me ask myself: how long has it been since I have been blogging? Not an easy answer.

To Blog or Not to Blog « into the quiet
"Maybe it’s just about the nature of what writer’s blogs are about? I mean, if you don’t want to post your actual work, writing about writing can get kinda boring. Believe me, there are plenty of writing blogs out there filled with posts about word counts. I mean, come on. That’s a bit. You know. Dreary."
