4 Years In The Black!

Four years ago today, I put up my very first weblog entry. Back then I used MovableType as my weblog provider, and the header/title was "[my first name]'s Obsidian Potency."  Back then, I was finishing my last semester of grad school.  Eventually, I would invite others to post along with me, and shorten the title to Obsidian Potency.   I knew I had a lot to say, but I had no idea that I'd still be at this with such zeal 4 years later. 



So much has grown and changed during that period, both for me and for the site.  After the switch to 2.0, OP became less of a diary and more rant, politics and culture-based.  The accepted rules of keeping a weblog continue to be changed and refined, and the very real risks and responsibilities associated with what we do is increasingly apparent.  Switching to Blog-City was a major transition, and Members-Only made the site more liberating than ever.   Honestly, I wish I'd started this sooner.



Regardless of when you started checking out Obsidian Potency, and even if you've only read it a few times, I want to thank you for coming.  We're going to keep writing, and we hope you'll continue to come along for the ride.
