I started blogging when most people still thought the web was just a place for news and shopping. Over the years, I’ve written hundreds of posts — some read by thousands, others by only a handful. Each post has been a way to think out loud, to capture ideas before they evaporate, and to connect with others who share curiosity rather than hype. Blogging has taught me patience, the joy of careful reading, and the quiet satisfaction of leaving a trail of thought behind. Even now, after all these years, I log in, write, and press publish with the same sense of wonder I had on day one.
