What was your first blog post?

It’s time to dust down your old blog posts and give them the attention they deserve. Drop a link to your first ever blog post, if it is still live and tell me what it was a about, even if it’s totally cringe-worthy, why not have a look at what other people are posting too.

Here’s mine from August 2008

    The first ever blog post of mrlphotography was as boring as they come. Kind of wish I could have sounded a wee bit more excited about it!

    Oh dear… My old blog is still online, and actually gathering the odd subscriber, weirdly… Here’s the first articles page, in Portuguese, beware: Design-Today. Please ignore the blog, I don’t update it anymore.

    And the first post of my current blog: Beginner’s Guide to Margins and Paddings :)

    Oh man, I have no idea what my first post was, I know it was in 2005. I have this habit of blogging well for the first 3 months of putting my site live, then losing interest, then 9 moths later redesign the site and deleting all the old posts and starting from scratch.

    I am absolutely determined to beat this habit this year, not delete any posts (unless absolutely necessary) and end up with, hopefully, a lot of nice content on my site.

  4. I remember that post :)

    My first was a “Welcome to my site, I am…” about me type affair, so I won’t link to it. Besides, you can get to it from my next link (WARNING: big hair). My first proper post was Young Tech Warriors, where I ponder about my brothers own involvement in development at a young age and how this affects his life.

    I did have sites and musings from before then but they are lost forever. I do recall something about “100 ways to kill a teddy bear” though…

    Tutorial: How to setup the perfect WAMP,Windows Apache PHP & MySQL

    The best method for setting up a W.A.M.P, (Windows Apache MySQl & PHP) for a perfect windows development environment. Still gets a few hits these days.

  6. Oh that’s easy… my first blog post was only 2 weeks ago :P

    Not the most original title seeing as it’s the same as the WordPress demo post Hello World!… maybe I should have called it Hello World Wide Web! instead

    “As you can see I’ve added the ability to add comments – I may regret this but I’ll see how it pans out.” – what was I thinking?

    My first post was about the beautiful grime in New York. Two years later, I was still writing an photographing the same kind of stuff. Now I hardly blog at all. But I maintain a visual blog elsewhere.
