  As I mentioned when I posted that I use GoDaddy to register my domains and to host my blogs, I’m a big fan.

  Bob Parsons, the guy who runs the show at GoDaddy has an awesome personal video blog. He’s a little brash but love’m or hate’m, everyone could learn a few lessons from that guy.

  In 1999 people dint know what google was, they only knew hotmail (MSN) and yahoo. Its remarkable what the technology has done to the internet, and how people use it. Few years back you required to know front page and some html coding language to design an web page. But now you have wordpress and the Joomlas……….. Blogging is really happening…

  Well, Google was founded in 1998 so only a select few knew they existed. I had the fortunate luxury of working with one of the founders on a project in 2000 before Google was a household brand. To be honest, I didn’t know I was rubbing up against greatness at the time.

  It’s really cool to watch all this playing out in real time, and to be a part of it.

  I’m in the thick of tech here in the SF Bay Area, and let me tell you, the pace of development hasn’t slowed. The Big Money has slowed, but everyone is still pounding out code.

  Wait, you work in public sector? That must be why you call yourself ‘poorblogger’.

  It’s definitely fun being on the front lines. Some of the blogs I used to write for (as an employee of the company) really made quite an impact on their bottom lines.

  I just love how organic everything is today. On the flip side, the evolution of the internet is so rapid that businesses are struggling to keep up in many cases.

  Great historical perspective, Gabe. Very interesting how these things continue to play out indeed.

  …lol…love the image of a blog being the corporate soapbox! Several of my “blogging” buds freelance for corporations as blogger – so far, they are winning in the income arena.

  PS … I believe they are still standing on soapboxes in Hyde Park albeit they are definitely not corporate!

  It’s a secret that many freelancers don’t want getting out but you’re right, there are plenty of corporate blogs looking for writers.

  Not in Canada!!!! I don’t know where poorblogger is from, but up here in the great white north, the public sector compares favorably with private (even at the upper echelons)…. and they have job security to boot! aaarrrgggghhhh!

  oh. just had to get that off my chest!

  5 years down the line I see Blogging as the biggest medium of sharing & promoting. The biggies like Google, Yahoo, Facebook must have their blogs rather sooner than later. Gabe, indeed a good historical insight.

  This is why I’m here! The Direct Sales/MLM communities really need to get on the stick and add blogs (as an example) to their websites. The company heads have no clue when they hand out those static “cookie cutter” sites to all reps.
