You might assume that the first blogger wrote his first blog in the 1990's shortly after the first B-log was posted, but I submit that the first blog was actually written over 200 years earlier and published ...in "Poor Richard's Almanac"...by Benjamin Franklin. Infact, Franklin wrote his words daily and published his thoughts. The printed words were delivered widely. The circulation was astounding considering the relatively small population of Pennsylvania at the time. What made Franklin's thoughts qualify as the FIRST BLOG was his puplication of letters (FEEDBAX) that were written to him in response to his ideas. Humour played an important role in Franklin's thought provoking words, but a high degree of common swense, creativity, amd inventiveness also kept readers commingback...and responding. It makes me wonder: could ONE MAN have really been capable of thinking of SO MANY different ideas? Did he have a team of secret writers on his staff? What do YOU think?

Yes,

it is possible for one person to have so many different ideas...

THe interesting thing to note, is that now that so many ideas have been explored created, blah blah, that now there is a derth of imagination as so much less needs to be imagined...

Franklin was able to imagine and have so many ideas, because there was so much out there to imagine, so it makes sense more then than now, for him to have such an astounding imagination...

ok, enough early morning babble,

Somebody in the 1800's said something very simmilar to what you just said. They said that there was nothing left to invent because everything that could be thought of had already been invented! Perhaps in 2108, somebody might read YOUR blog and scratch her ...and wonder! (Strokes her )
