1998 - Created my own AsianAvenue page and started to customize the layout with simple HTML, CSS. Each day I would write a little exceprt about what occured and my daily ramblings for all my friends.

2001 - I followed a link from a AsianAvenue friend to LiveJournal and was talked into joining. At first the idea of sharing my personal thoughts with the world scared me abit, but once I started to write a few posts I didnt mind.

2004 - I discovered Xanga, a online community of bloggers. It was a great way for me to update my friends with everything that was going on in my life. This period was some of the best times of my life.

2006 - I tried out Blogger but felt that I was too disconnected, there was no sense of community.

2008 - Here we are, my very own domain name. I hope to make this my permanent blog where I can write about a wide variety of issues that interest or concern me.

As you can see, its been 10 years since I first started to blog. Blogging has certainly changed, there are bloggers who are making 6 figures just writing consistently about niche subjects or how to make money online. What I find really beneficial are the blogs from teams such as Microsoft, Sun, Adobe who try to keep us up to date with their projects and replying to comments. Blogging has certainly given a voice to those who would never have been heard, so I urge everyone to start writing and let yourself be heard.
