In the last several years, the word BLOG has raged into global consciousness as if the concept had never existed before. But it did.
Long before the guy in Iraq, there was a young gay southern kid named Justin Clouse (right) who started his blog more than 10 years ago (though he just called it a journal)! Struggling with his life, relationships and college (as we all did), he started keeping an online journal that eventually turned into http://www.justinslife.com/. Though he stopped in order to focus on his life in the real world a few years ago, he was one of the pioneers of blogging. And what he did back then is not at all different from what’s happening today. Simply a normal, everyday guy sharing his thoughts and feelings (and obsession with red heads!) with the world.
Don’t know where he is or what he’s up to these days, but hats off to him for being an early and gutsy blog pioneer!
