You have really good experience in it. So tell me: aren't you shy of telling the truth about your life to strange people around the web?

That was very insightful into your last seven years and going back to the early days of blogging. I think I was just getting an email address sven years ago!

Congrats on 7 years of sharing your life and thoughts publicly. I am working with small business owners and professionals like lawyers and helping them use blogs, social media, and local search engines to narrowcast their expertise and build community locally. It will be interesting to see how video impacts social media and blogging in the next few years.

Congratulations Robert! That is quite an accomplishment. I'm in my first year of blogging. Sharing all of those joyous/painful experiences with the world I'm sure has helped many people.

On a funny/coincidental note, I just started a series of posts on my entrepreneurial journey (mixing past and present) and the post title is called The Entrepreneurial 7 Year Itch. http://www.entrepremusings....

So how will you scratch your blogging 7 year itch? :-)

What makes me thinking is that you survived a lot in 7 years of your life but your blog posts didn't survive 7 years of technological updates. I think many people have this experience about their digital data. I use computers since the early 80's and most of my stuff can't be accessed anymore. As I wrote in my article http://www.indranet.org/tec... my grandmom paper pictures are still there and will be there for a further long time, but I doubt my digital ones will be available to my grandchildren.

Seven years is a pretty long time. And when did I just start blogging again? *scratches head* Those seven years of yours, as you have so deftly summarized, have seen a lot of action. It makes me think about how much we don't know about our future. We can make lots of plans and some of them might push through... But we will never be certain of what really awaits us. Like being involved in two really big companies as you say... Being able to reflect on what has happened is a really grand way of appreciating life.

Kubla: they probably are related, actually. Blogging helps you learn yourself better. After 9/11 and my car wreck, though, I decided to live every day like it was my last. That accelerated everything a lot more.

" Seven Years of Blogging
In the past seven years I’ve survived:

...
4. A divorce."

Mmmnn. Wonder if the two are related? ;)
Very true what you say about regretting not going back and looking at old blogs. I did that with a hardcopy journal I used to keep and learned a lot; mostly about how the same themes kept cropping up.

Hey Robert,
Congratulations. Your post prompted me to take a look for my old posts from 1997 and it's funny, but they are still up on some old AOL pages of mine.

Congratulations, especially on the sheer quantity (and quality) of the interviews. There's a lot of value in those alone. Isn't it a blast to review a lengthy period of time and collectively see everything that you survived and went through just to be where you are today?

Posted on this - and it was nice meeting you at LeWeb3 this week - good fortune on the new job - wherever it ends up being (I guess we'll find out on January 15th, though I get TechCrunch and OmMalik will leak it earlier).

Thanks again,
