The spring of 2003 must have been a good time to start a blog — that’s when I started, and beating me by a couple of months was archy. Congratulations on your persistence!

Thank you.
I also beat you to fifty by a few months, but I’m not sure which of those is the more dubious achievement.

Man, you’re just paving the way for me in everything. So what happened to you today, so I can prepare for its occurrence in 2 months for me?
I’m having a quiet day upgrading some software. Other that that, you don’t want to know.
Well, dear PZ, your blog was one of the first ones I started to read. And now I am blogging as well. Good job on your blog although sometimes you can be quite a radical (no offense)!
you guys are johnny-come-latelies in the blogging world. although not a science blog, the Flick Filosopher (www.flickfilosopher.com) has been on line since *1997* posting almost every day! she started back in the dark ages — and is still persisting.
I never claimed to be the pioneer. When I started, I was following the lead of David Neiwert at Orcinus. He also got me started reading Doc Savage paperbacks when we were in the seventh grade, so I’m just another born follower.
Wow. I started my blog in Spring 2003 too.
Not that it’s as widely read as yours, but that’s because it’s a personal journal and I never link to it.
