I was lucky to be part of the early blog sunrise around 2000. I was even more lucky to have a blog that was picked up, recognized by the likes of Macromedia, Adobe, and linked by a lot others. I believe there are a few references from few entries in Wikipedia and few other well known websites.
When Google Adsense was a thing and fun, I had it running on my site for quite a long time. There was a time when I supported my Startup with the income from my blog. A few of my years in Mumbai was just living off of the income from my blog.
20+ years now, I just have my blog as a record and archive for all the fun, stupid, silly, and nonsense that I wrote. Now, I write for myself and perhaps for my kids to browse around in future and, may, laugh. I have no comments, no analytics, nothing at all now.
I can understand the new generations loathing the likes of Blogs, Emails. However, I look at them as a digital record of my life.
For instance, I stumble on people online and then I reply back to the email thread we had in 2005. How nice is that?
