1,621 posts and counting

July 27, 2007 By Brad Linder 2 Comments

A few months ago Engadget’s Ryan Block wrote his 5,000th post for the technology blog. I’m no Ryan Block, but a week or two ago I noticed that I was about to hit my 1,500th post for Weblogs Inc sites including PVR Wire, Download Squad, and TV Squad. I made a mental note to take a screenshot when that happened, and it totally slipped my mind.

Today I checked again and wouldn’t you know it, I shot past 1,600 while I wasn’t paying attention. So I figured I’d just stop now to pat myself on the back. Now, I believe good blogging should be a quality over quantity thing, just like good journalism. But it’s still pretty astonishing to look at my body of work over the last year (it’s almost exactly a year since I left my full time reporting job in Philadelphia to begin the perilous life of a freelance journalist/blogger).

In that year I’ve written an average of 5 blog entries per day, weekends included. Some are just quick snippets of the day’s news, while others have been far more detailed (and fun to work on):

  • Windows Mobile tools and toys for commuters
  • Interview with Picnik co-founder Mike Harrington
  • Download Squad Switcher podcast series
  • Q&A with Craigslist’s Jim Buckmaster
  • Interviews with the folks behind ReplayTV PC Edition, BeyondTV, and SageTV

I’ve also produced some radio pieces this past year that I’m particularly proud of, including:

  • Low income housing in Philadelphia
  • The death penalty in New Jersey
  • Indian dance competition
  • Companies create their own health clinics
  • Philadelphia homicide prevention
  • Running a home on solar/hydrogen power
  • Touring a nuclear power plant

And the list goes on. In fact, every time I start to think that I’m about to become a full time blogger whether I like it or not, I wind up with several radio stories on my plate that pretty much leave me struggling to remember what free time felt like. I just picked up two new stories that should be a lot of fun to work on, but I’ll tell you about those later.
