Over at the affiliate site to this page, Revolutionary Moderation, Don is celebrating his 1,000 post. As regular readers will recall, this page started blogging as vacation filler for RevMod whenever Don wandered off to the Cayman Islands to watch for hurricanes, put back cheap rum and check on his secret bank accounts.
An occasion such as this proves futurists right when they talk about an increasing pace of change. When Don started his blog in 2002, he was one of the few, the proud, well, as proud as CB radio enthusiasts or bulletin board operators were in their day. As I was more involved in writing for various union newsletters at the time, I kind of smiled and nodded at Don and his musings while listening to my $275 MP3 player with 30 MB of memory.
Five years later, everybody has their own blog or page on a social network site, and I have a gig worth of tunes for $50. Where does the time go? Fortunately, some things haven't changed: neither Don or I really care if Britney Spears let herself go.

You are far too kind - you are at least as good at this if not better, and you're still posting far more regularly.
And what are people actually watching out on the intertubes these days? This guy, who cares about Britney a whole lot: http://youtube.com/watch?v=kHmvkRoEowc . But I trust that's what you were alluding to in your post.
