In one form or another.
I realized today that I've been blogging since I was in High School.
That's a bit of a stretch, but I realized that I had:
- An underground newspaper in High School.
- A weekly column in College.
Except for that long dry spell after College, I've been blogging for 20 years now. Blogging is somewhat natural, because I've always been opinionated, and I've always written about it. What blogging does for me is bridge the gulf been writing, and access to readership.
I remember seeing Bill Gates on the David Letterman show quite a few years ago. David asked him about "this Internet thing". Bill made some comment about how you could listen to music from over the Internet. David mocked him saying "isn't that called the radio". Bill Gates just shut up then.
Neither Bill Gates nor David Letterman got the Internet. The point of the Internet is that you can own your own radio station. Freedom of the press only helps those who own one, and thanks to blogging, we all own our own press.
As we say in Arizona, YEE HA!
