I had my first anniversary 11 days ago on February 3rd, 2006.
Anniversary, huh? Yeah! This might be not so important to you, but it is, or should be (at least) be for me. Gee, if I forget something like this, what about wedding anniversaries one day.
My future wife is going to kill me.
Well, I am safe today, since I am not married. I am single, busy single single = no girl friend. No valentines day gifts to forget. Yeah, it’s today, Valentines Day. You forgot that? I guess you have a wife, fianc?? or other long term relationship. You would have remembered otherwise hehe.
Okay, now jokes aside. Ten days ago was my 1st Blogger anniversary.
That’s right, One year and ten days ago did I setup my first blog and posted my first blog entry, EVER!
The first blog was this one and it started out as a blog on the blogger.com domain. It moved on the same month to Cumbrowski.com/RoySAC/Blog and in August 2006 to it current location at RoySAC.com/blog.
The Blog got temporarily “hijacked”, metaphorical speaking, during the summer last year, when a business issue made me “abuse” my private art related blog (in a broader sense) to discuss issues that are as far off topic as a pork chops recipe on a Islamic or Jewish orthodox blog (conservative and reformed too for that matter, but that’s not the point).
I got it back in July and moved my business related blogging to ReveNews.com, a blog dedicated to Internet Marketing and Affiliate Marketing in particular.
I also maintained the ConsumerMatch.com blog until August 2006. Conna Craig took over there for me in October, because I simply did not have the time for it anymore. I might blog there again in the future. Once in a while. May be. We will see.
My business blogging also brought me to SearchEngineJournal.com, which is a blog related to Search Engine Marketing. How all this happened was posted (dah!) at the beginning of this year at my ReveNews blog.
I don’t have a precise count, but I posted over 150 entries at the various blogs and I exclude posts at “blogs” like my deviantART Journal, the ReturnOnAffiliate Blog (site does not exist anymore), MySpace and other places.
I don’t have to crunch any numbers to know that the graph that shows my frequency of posting at a blog looks like the graph every company loves to see when they review the development of the companies EBIT of the previous months.
I am looking forward to another year of blogging and have to say that it gave me great joy and the opportunity to get in touch with people I wouldn’t have connected with, without blogging and the rest that goes along with it.
If you don’t have a blog yet and think about starting one, beware, blogging has a tendency not proven by medical studies yet.
It is “addictive”!
Anybody with a blog who caught himself writing a post for the blog in his head while doing something else that is supposed to get 100% attention (and screws it up, because of it), knows what I mean hehe.
Cheers!
Carsten aka Roy/SAC
Note: I have not made any New Year’s resolutions, but may be this one could be called one: I hope to find Bloggers that have a blog like this one, related to ANSI and ASCII Text art, Demoscene and related topics (in a broader sense). So far was I not able to find anything that comes even remotely close.
Roy of Superior Art Creations
Roy/SAC ANSI art , ASCII art , Text art, Pixel art, Wikipedia, deviantART, Cirque Du Soleil and fun.
How Could I Miss This?
NOTE! I believe in the right for freedom of speech and personal opinion and are against censorship, so feel free to tell me what you think and let me and others hear your opinion on this subject, but please avoid using the f-word and s-word as much as you possibly can, because at the end of the day this blog exists for the purpose of useful exchanges of thoughts, ideas and opinions and not as a valve for your accumulated anger and frustration. Get a shrink for that! Thanks.
