Blast from the past
Posted on 25. Apr, 2010 by Deb in As the Web Turns, Observations, The Girl
Thanks to a flurry of email exchanges today, I made a visit to the Wayback Machine. I looked up something I had written and realized that I have been blogging since 09/28/2000.
Wow.
I took some time and read through some of the older postings. I found a link to the first post I made for “World Without Weblogs” for World AIDS Day, organized by Brad of Brandlands who passed away this past year. Hard to believe I’ve followed folks like Zeldman and Jim McCormick and Eric Brooks for almost 10 years. Back then, there weren’t very many blogs and the blogging community was pretty small. This was long before Twitter and Facebook. We all “knew” each other. Everyone supported each other’s writings and the ability to read so many personal stories was comforting and refreshing.
During the first three years of my blog, I met people like Lee and Melissa through my blog – people that have become some of my best friends.
I also found the logo from All Things Girl from 2004. With the 10th Anniversary of ATG coming in August and a re-design scheduled for the September issue, it’s exciting to see the growth.

Current Logo – Revealed Oct. 2007
New Logo – To begin with redesign Sept 2010
I hope you’ve had a good weekend. And have a great week. I’m traveling tomorrow….
