I was tagged a few days ago by TheCaymanHost and I’m just now getting around to posting the answers to the following questions. A few of these are tough. Or, it’s the Xanax talking.

1) How Long Have You Been Blogging? Since late 2002, early 2003. I started with LiveJournal, then moved to Thingamablog and a domain that was the same as this but .org instead of .net-Yahoo screwed me over so I moved to this domain and DreamHost in December of 2004 and started fresh.

2) What Inspired You To Start A Blog and Who Are Your Mentors? I don’t think I was really inspired-I was bored at work one day and browsing the Internet when I came upon a website with a link to LiveJournal. I’ve always enjoyed writing and saw it as an opportunity to get things off my chest while being anonymous. I don’t have any mentors either. I believe each blogger brings his, or her own, creativity and uniqueness to the blogging world.

3) Are You Trying To Make Money Online Or Just Doing It For Fun? Both. Making money isn’t my soul purpose for blogging, but if I can use my blog as a resource, then so be it. I enjoy the challenge of writing, learning the ins and outs of blogging, what works, what doesn’t, etc.

4) Tell Me Three Things You LOVE About Being Online. The information. I’m such a geek when it comes to absorbing new information, well, in subjects which interest me and as we all know, we can find info about any subject on this thing, because Al Gore invented it.

5) Tell Me Three Things You Struggle With In The Online World. Selfishness and Dishonesty. I don’t tolerate it well in the real world and I certainly don’t online.


Now, I have to tag 5 people:

blueyes,   Loq,   Sam,   Leigh and Skeet, (because I’m writing her Blog A Day today).
