ExploreMyBlog was started by me in November of 2006, This was in the start of the Web2.0 boom. funded by doing annoying contract web projects for big companies, trying to make my own grand entrance onto the Web2.0 landscape. What I was originally trying to do doesn't matter so much now. But while doing it, I created ExploreMyBlog, more or less on a whim, and thought — Hmmm... that's interesting.

ExploreMyBlog took off, in a small way, and eventually a bigger way, over a couple years. I raised a little money (but stayed small). And then the bust happened, and I ran out of money, and our fun little journey got less fun. I narrowly survived, not all in one piece, but kept the service going the whole time (most days) and started building it back up.

Things were going well again in 2007. I had hundreds of users, though still just a few people. And then something no one expected happened, My Blog become very famous among bloggers and readers.

Now I am a small (but slightly bigger than before) team focusing on helping people have their own voice on the web and organizing the world's information from the personal perspective. Which has pretty much always been our whole deal.
