5 Years of Blogging about Corporate eLearning - Thanks for the memories!
Blogger was born on this day (8/23) 1999. Six years later to the day I started the Corporate eLearning Strategies and Development blog - http://elearndev.blogspot.com. It was not planned that way. It just happened. So now its been 5 years since I started blogging. Things sure have changed, but as I reflect, much has stayed the same.
The following links are the only "anniversary" related posts I could find. But it was fun to reflect back on what was important to me five years ago. I started blogging 1 year before I left Intel...coincidence?

Questions I'm considering
I think my blogging has slowed quite a bit over this last year and so at this anniversary I'm finding it a good idea to re-imagine the blog. Maybe I want to just shut it down? Should I try to monetize it? Do I get more guest writers? I've always been more excited about a relaxed, less structured approach to self publishing, but it just feels like its time to either shut it down, or kick it up a notch.
- Is blogging still an important part of your learning, or collaboration?
- Are you spending more time on twitter, or Facebook these days?
- Does your LinkedIn account supplement or replace your blogging activities?
