Happy Birthday Big Dumb Object

29 Apr 2008

April 17th is Big Dumb Objects' Official Birthday, however like the Queen it gets two, the official one, and the one when I actually remember, which is today.

The first post on BDO was April 17th 2004 at 22:36:46. 4 years! Where did that go? (Although bizarrely Alexa says it's been online since 06-Apr-2004)

Some stats:

  • 2,533 entries
  • 931 comments
  • Quite a few visits (not sure if my old webstat logs are archived or deleted).

Thanks to everyone for reading and commenting.

Of course BDO is young in comparison to my first blog (now dormant) who's first post was on May 29th 2002 when blogging was still young and fresh and RSS was wildly exciting.

I'm getting all nostalgic.
