In 1999, Peter Merholz jokingly turned the word “weblog” into the phrase “we blog” in the sidebar of his, well, blog, and gave us the word “blog.”
I’m at Alltop.com
Look where I landed! Online mogul Guy Kawasaki describes his alltop.com this way: The purpose of Alltop is to help you answer the question, What’s happening? in all the topics that interest you. You may wonder how Alltop is different from a search engine. A search engine is good to answer a …
