The History of Blogging: I’m a Part of It


history of bloggingSteve Spalding is a blogging force to be reckoned with. He writes a fantastic blog over at How To Split an Atom. I encourage you to check it out, if you haven’t already.

And now he’s launched a new initiativeHistory of Blogging — of which I’m playing a part. It was great to be invited…

History of Blogging is a new kind of blog network – each member picked by Steve, each member tackling technology and social media issues from a different perspective. We’re loosely connected through History of Blogging where we publish links of interest (from our own sites but primarily from others), to bring you an assortment of top-quality content (hopefully!) I’ve already discovered a number of blogs and people absolutely worth tracking.

With that in mind, here’s the list of people participating in Steve’s latest project:

I look forward to participating with this group and seeing where History of Blogging takes us. And I hope you enjoy all of these bloggers and the content they share as well!

  1. The concept is very good and I look forward to seeing the history of blogging soon. I shall shortly visit How To Split An Atom too to check out the site.

  2. You know I just read a fascinating post along with an interview, which talked about the history of Internet Marketing. It’s a little bit different than what you’re talking about here but still losely related and I thought it was still worth the mentnion. It’s called “An Internet Marketer Turns 12″ by David Ledoux, I don’t want to post the website here, but it can be found at the url in my name.

  3. Interesting post, im quite a big fan of Steves “how to split an atom” blog, he posts some real worthy stuff.

  4. [...] Instigator Blog - I got to know – and enjoy – business blogger extraordinaire Ben Yoskovitz back when he blogged for b5 on Startup Spark.  Now he’s instigating discussion, ideas and better business – and winning awards -  at Instigator Blog. [...]

    Being new to the whole blogging scene, I feel like I’ve missed so much. So I look forward to seeing some concise information on how this all got started and why it’s become so important to be on the internet and blogging to your hearts content! I never knew I had so much to say, now its trying to make it all make sense. Keep up the good work!

    Please don’t take (too much) offence, but isn’t it .. a bit too early, for a history of blogging? I don’t think there’s even a decade worth of blggers.

    Of course, people are developing new and exciting methods of communication daily, refining the tools, going all the way to blogging or microblogging, but only a certain time will show the real value of this.

    Just my two cents …

  8. @Emirhan: *chuckle* … maybe it is too early, you’d have to ask Steve Spalding at http://www.howtosplitanatom.com – he came up with the name. I’m just happy to be a part of it.

  9. Interesting post. Thank You for this concept!

  10. Congrats on the project:)going to enjoy seeing what results you and the others bring to us.
