Four years of blogging…
by bigpresh on Feb.21, 2011, under Non-geeky, Personal
Just a quick post to note that it’s been four years since my first post on this blog, on which my friend Jim commented:
HAHAHAHA, this won’t last long!
Like many blogs before it, it’s doomed to sit on a webserver somewhere and gather cyber dust!!
I may go for a fair while without posting sometimes, but it’s still alive, so hah! :)
My Twitter updates- bigpresh: @virginmedia Only just saw your reply, sorry - routing was all screwy at the time, but all is fine now thanks! :)
- bigpresh: Stevenage to London via Amsterdam? Methinks @virginmedia are having slight routing troubles :)
- bigpresh: RT @TomNomNom: I wrote a book about PHP http://t.co/7oIbPMiJ
- bigpresh: Air ambulance just landed in Chells Park near me... heard them mention Downlands #stevenage
- bigpresh: @petterthunaes Even better, alias fuck='killall -9' in your .profile - typing e.g. "fuck tomcat" is wonderfully cathartic
- bigpresh: @petterthunaes Why not try out both, and see which you feel more comfortable with? That's probably a better way to decide.

Well done mate. I have the feed in GReader to see the updates.
I just checked and my current site is nearly 6 years old with over 400 entries. Not posting so often these days. I still see a need for a blog in this age of social sites. I want something I have total control over. I only get a few readers, but I’m happy with that.
