Louis Gray wrote a recap of the various incarnations of his LouisGray.com website, from personal site to sports comics site to his current blog where he discusses developments in technology under the subhead "Silicon Valley Blog."
It's interesting to see how Louis' online presence has changed as the available technology has changed. Also interesting how a connection with a well-known blogger, in this case Robert Scoble, made such a difference in the success of the blog as well as its eventual editorial direction. After Scoble linked to LouisGray.com, Louis was
...excited, but nervous too. For if I didn't start writing about stuff that Scoble wanted, he would unsubscribe. He wouldn't share my items in his link reader, and that'd be the end of that little experiment. Luckily, I started to arc my coverage even more toward tech, and more toward those things he liked, including Google Reader and RSS.
I suspect that many of us who've been online in one form or another have similar experiences, but I enjoyed reading Louis' trip down his virtual memory lane.
