I hit 300 posts on this blog yesterday. That’s pretty impressive to me considering there have been months where no updates have been made to the site. I’ve been “blogging” on the internet since 1999. You could argue that my Jason Newsted site on my AOL FTP pages constituted a blog back in 1996, but there was no RSS or comments associated with it.
In the time I’ve been blogging I started and graduated college. I’ve dated too many women I want to remember. I played in six bands and released five CDs. I met and married my wife. I had long hair, I had a shaved head, I had a mohawk, a shaved head and long hair once again. I got three dogs. I started my own company as a freelancer and then got hired as a full time producer. I went from an apartment to owning my first house to being on my way to purchasing an apartment with my wife.
So here’s to another 300 posts I suppose.

So this meme has been working its way through a few different blogs of people I knew in college. (I still know them, we were better friends in college). It started with Danielle and then hit Dan. Now it’s my turn.
Here are the rules as I understand them:
write your life’s biography in six words and accompany it with an image
I’m not sure if that means present or past tense, because it’s supposed to be a story. So here I go:
I filled my days with awesomeness

Just killing time online I stumbled upon a bunch of blogs written by people I know. It’s odd when this happens to me, because I’ve been writing online in one form or another for nearly eight years and I always kind of assumed that people I knew weren’t online outside of their bands’ websites or MySpace/Facebook/LinkedIn/Bebo/Virb/JotSpot/etc. There was always Tape’s site, but outside of Tape I didn’t really know anyone else in college who kept a blog. Tape, by the way, was the first person I knew who had their own domain name. Straight out owned their own domain name. Years ago I used one of those free forwarding services for robblatt.com, but didn’t buy it outright.
But this morning I stumbled on two couples I know from college who regularly keep blogs. Perhaps I’ll have to include a blogroll, know that I know that other people I’ve met in the meat-space are blogging too.
Heh. Meat-space.

If someone tells you that they bumped into me today on their second day of work, please let me know. I was too busy going through my limited Rolodex of people I knew to admit I didn’t remember their name or where I met them.
Secondly, if you know a friend who just started working at Gartner in Stamford, CT, you can let me know too.
Thanks.
