<\/p>\nTwo Thousand (2,000) Posts here on dotnet. How can that be and how do you know ? This information is on my Dashboard !<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh My, Oh My, how the time flies past all of us !<\/p>\n
It seems like yesterday !<\/p>\n
My International travel (call it recreational travel after I formally retired in July 1988) began in October of 1990 when I went to India (October 24, 1990 to May 18, 1991) for just under 7 months. I began hand writing about my travels and sending my writings to friends in the United States by snail mail during this first trip to India. My very first hand-penned journal was written in January of 1991. It was hand carried back to the United States in early January of 1991 by my great friend Greg who I met at the New Delhi India YMCA on December 27th, 1990. Greg then snail mailed it to my son and several friends in the U.S. I continued to hand-pen my travel adventures until sometime around year 2002 when I began to write and email my adventures to those who were interested. Then, somewhere in the mix, I learned what a website \/ blog was and I had been mulling that concept for quite some time.<\/p>\n
Finally .. VOILA ! <\/span><\/em>.. dotnet was born ..<\/p>\n My dotnet adventure began at a 9am Saturday morning meeting (unless my webmaster Andrej has a better date) August 4th, 2011, in Royal Oak, Michigan, at a church on Normandy Road, just West of Woodward Avenue. It was as if I was just there !<\/p>\n Why did a sudden chain-of-events occur? Only A Power Greater Than All Of Us knows. Andrej, sitting to my immediate right at the table, and I just had some of that magical ” people chemistry ” between the two of us. We two had never met (yet).<\/p>\n After the meeting, and why I asked Andrej the below question I’ll never know :<\/p>\n ” Andrej do you know how to establish a website ? “<\/p>\n Andrej said .. ” Yes, in fact I have my own website. ”\u00a0<\/p>\n And (I’m not positive) we may have gotten together that same morning to discuss Andrej setting up a website, or if you prefer, a Blog, for me. By the way, the word Blog is a truncation of “web log”. A Blog is a discussion or informational website published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries (posts).\u00a0<\/p>\n The below link will tell you all (even FAR MORE than you can comprehend) you may ever want to know about Web Logs (Blogs) ..<\/p>\n https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20150530144950\/http:\/\/www.rebeccablood.net\/essays\/weblog_history.html<\/a><\/p>\n You can go to Wikipedia for more information.\u00a0 See the below link.<\/p>\n https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Blog<\/a><\/p>\n Over the next 10 days Andrej got our Web Log (Blog) established and on August 16th 2011 I published the very first Post.<\/p>\n
