A strange anniversary...

elfsCory Doctory, on his wonderful blog BoingBoing!, notes that he's coming up on his fifth anniversary and that he and his cohorts have posted a total of 17,000 or so articles.
Curious, I went and looked up how old my own blogging activities were, and was surprised to note that I'd missed the anniversary of my debut by about a week. October 21st, 1989, was the date I made my first open post, rather than responding to someone else; I have been blogging on one site or another for fifteen years, and have myself posted over 20,000 articles.
Eek. I wonder if I've ever said anything useful or interesting?

I do wonder -- what form did the original 1989 blog take? Dial-up BBS? Or does USENET count?
congratulations!

Again, congratulations on fifteen years!
