Some little known history about this blogger, who is one year older than I had thought

Forgotten by me entirely, a year before this blog first spoke out on Feb. 20, 2005, I set up a blog (Law Department Management Consulting) and published all of six entries between Feb. 1, and April 11, 2004. It is embarrassing to glance over the puny and disjointed items, which appeared on Blogger’s earliest release.

Even so, my pedigree now extends back an additional year as a blogger. But it is telling that I was one of the millions of wannabe-bloggers who flamed out. It is also disturbing to be smacked in the face with the permanence of what is put up on the internet – we leave our electronic tracks long after, like the footprints of fleeing Pompeians.
