It was August 19th, 2004 when I launched Population Statistic, in all it’s green-hued glory, upon the InterWebs.

Two years to the day before that, I first gave this blogging thing a whirl on The Critical ‘I’. That was the 2002 version of Blogger/BlogSpot, meaning pre-Google — oldschool, y’all.

So today would be my four-year anniversary of running this dedicated blog website, and six-year anniversary of embarking upon blogging as a daily hobby/discipline/timewaster. Given that the average abandonment rate for most blogs is still measured in weeks, I’ve demonstrated persistence and endurance, if nothing else (although hopefully, the countless wordcount contained within these posts demonstrates something more).

As the content well hasn’t run dry yet, and I still somehow manage to eke out time, I guess I’ll press on until next August.
