Last weekend, the hit rates on my blog went through the roof.
Why, I wondered? Am I really that fascinating? I mean, I
know that my chocolate lab thinks so, but she doesn't have high-speed
wireless. It turns out that Robert Scoble of Microsoft had blogged
about my entry on the well-designed
signage at one of our local airports. Cool.
I had started a conversation.
I might actually get comfortable with blogging after all.
I'm also pleased to see that Robert has been watching blogs.sun.com. Which is
great. I've been known to poke around Channel9 from time to time,
where I particularly like the doctrine.
From the Scobleizer
blog:
"Sun's bloggers have made Sun much more
interesting to watch lately. Don't you agree?"
The conversation goes a bit further. Andy sat next to
Stephen O'Grady of RedMonk at a
dinner last week. Somehow they ended up talking about blogging,
and
it turns out that Stephen had read my blog, too. Cool again. People are
actually reading these humble testaments of passion and commitment.
Of course, I had to return the favor and find out more about Stephen
O'Grady. That's when I
discovered this gem in his tecosystems
blog. Check it out:
