Tracking longitudinal changes of first year weblogers. Four months of blogging. I have been keeping this weblog a bit over four months now. Originally I just wanted a bit of experience of blogging, the new thing on the web. I have got what I wanted, and something more: a new way of looking at the internet. Previously I didn't believe in the concept of large-scale co-operative technologies, but weblogs seem to have achieved something of real value to the participants.
This year I have published about 45 short pieces: columns and articles. In addition, several of my books have appeared in new editions. Thus, this has been a productive year. After I started keeping a weblog, my other writing assignments have not suffered, almost the opposite. A couple of my short pieces have resulted from ideas and writings which first appeared on this weblog.
What about next year? So far I have published 1363 postings on this weblog. I probably won't be as active next year. There are a lot of other things to do, and other writing assingments already waiting. [Universal Rule]
