A Decade of Links and Opinions

According to Saturday’s The Wall Street Journal, it’s the tenth anniversary of the web log, or the blog.  On December 23, 1997, Mr. Barger began "logging the best stuff I find as I surf, on a daily basis," according to the Journal and according to Mr. Barger’s website, which has a whole lotta links!  Included in the article are some famous folks’ favorite blog sites, such as actress Mia Farrow‘s (BoingBoing.net and GPSMagazine.com), CEO of Craigslist Jim Buckmaster (Slashdot.org, Metafilter.com, Valleywag.com, and TechDirt.org), and founding editor of Gawker Elizabeth Spiers (Reason.com/blog, MaudNewton.com, and DesignObserver.com).

Technically, it’s not the 23rd of December yet, but I think we can celebrate bloggin’ in style on that date.
