Brian used to joke that I dragged him into the world of social media but the truth is, Brian and I had a shared love of communications and the strange new world of "web logs" in 2006 intrigued us both.

On April 21, 2006, Brian hit "post" on the first blog and we both sat anxiously at my computer waiting for the first comment. It came and, when we opened it, it was a sequence of four letter words...that started with the letter "f". Brian and I's mouths dropped open and then we looked at each other and started hugging and jumping up and down...we had officially entered the blogosphere.
