Happy 4-Year AOL Journals Anniversary

Hi folks -- sorry, I got caught up in a few things today or else I would have blogged about it sooner -- it being August 21st, that means today marks the AOL Journals Four-Year Anniversary! Feel free to celebrate by using this anniversary graphic in your blog (it was originally created by us, and updated this year by Donna:


AOL Journals 4-Year Anniversary Animated Gif -- updated by Donna.

Blogger John posted his entry about it this morning; if you've done your own entry about the anniversary or your tenure with AOL Journals, leave a comment with a link to your entry (you can also give it the tag "" so that other people can find it by clicking on the link).

On a related note, on Sunday, I stopped by the Journals Cafe anniversary chat that Guido had set up. Check out his chat log if you dare.

We've kind of hit a lull in Journals activity; the team is working on a few things for the fall that will hopefully help revitalize the product and the community of Journalers, but I don't quite feel comfortable talking about it yet -- not until we can start seeing some of the actual development work.

 (The team has also had some smaller releases recently, but it's all been back-end and server migration stuff -- nothing worthy of a muppet code name yet.)

Anyway, I'm still here, so I hope you'll stick around too.

Thanks, and happy anniversary! -- Joe

Hard to believe that it's been four years! Before the jnl. was deleted, I stood at Number 21. after Slomo and before Freeepeace...what is four years in dinosaur years?
