I started my blog in 2002. That was pre-MySpace, pre-Facebook. That was back before newspapers realized they were going out of business. That was back when no one gave any credence to Internet writers.

I had a blog for many years. Once you develop your readership on your blog, and you can put something out there or direct traffic or get attention - it's like a super power.

For almost a year, I sporadically made these rather lame video blogs in my dorm. These video blogs were reflective of most video blogs during that time in that they had no real structure and were kind of just all over the place.

Nowadays, everyone seems to have a blog that finds readers.

I'm not sure blogs are necessarily the best place to get a pulse on anything. People want to blog for a variety of reasons, and that may or may not be representative.

I'm on Tumblr all the time.

I started my blog as an online diary. I moved to New York for a job, and I kind of wanted to keep my pictures all in one place. Also, I just love style blogs and wanted to join in on the fun!

There are 100 million blogs in the world, and it's part of my job as the co-founder of WordPress to help many more people start blogging.

On Tumblr, I'm really careful about not following too many things. I enjoy going on there to discover new things more than anywhere else now.

I don't read blogs, I don't have MySpace, I don't have Facebook or Twitter - none of that.
