For the record, this is the 992nd post.<\/p>\n<p>Does this mean my blog can drive?<\/p>\n<p>16 years ago I wrote my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/4\">first post about RSS<\/a>. I recently just added RSS to a static site generator that had a blog component. What is old is new again, indeed.<\/p>\n<p>Blogging has taught me so much. How to write. How to promote. How to investigate a problem. How to describe what I do to non technical people. How to handle gobs of traffic. How to handle tumbleweeds (aka no one visiting my blog).<\/p>\n<p>I tell everyone I meet to blog. Not for other people, but <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/2188\">for yourself<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Having a record of my life (not the whole thing, but at least some aspect of it). Having a chance to help other people. Even just making the time to sit down and think about something deeply. All huge benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes my posting schedule is less frequenty (especially when I&#8217;m writing elsewhere, as I am now on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transposit.com\/blog\/\">Transposit blog<\/a>), other times I speed up (I wrote <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/2842\">100 blog posts in 100 days<\/a>, it was great).<\/p>\n<p>Either way, I&#8217;ve enjoyed this blog immensely, and appreciate everyone who swings by to read a post, leave a comment, submit to an aggregator or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/subscribe\">subscribes to new posts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for 16 great years!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, 16 years of blogging.
