now how in the heck did I miss that?
I made the very first post in this blog on April 17th, 2003. That made Monday my third blogiversary. There have been a ton of changes in that time, in this blog, in my life, and in the world. When I started, the space community was still reeling from the loss of the Space Shuttle Columbia; since then the X-Prize has been won, and people are seriously talking about (and funding) extensive private business in space. I've been in the middle of a Sea of Red and watched as the Calgary Flames came withing a hair's breadth of winning the Stanley Cup. I've gathered together over 130 space blogs, and joined up with a number of other blogrolls. It's seen my monthly traffic climb from less than a hundred hits a month to several thousand hits per month (but it will be a while yet before I catch Glenn Reynolds).
All in all, it's been a pretty good three years. And I have no plans on stopping anytime soon- although I should probably start posting a little more regularly. I've been such a slacker. I'll stop procrastinating tomorrow.

"I'll stop procrastinating tomorrow." LOL - I know the feeling.
HAPPY BLOG-O-VERSARY to you, indeed! Three years is quite an accomplishment! I have enjoyed your blog and the items you find (the Lego items still blows my mind) to write about.
A long and prosperous future to you and your blog, robot guy!!
Congradulations. I know I was suprised when my one year came up last April. I hope for many more years of robot guy to come.
By the way, I should be giving some books away soon, as after I review a couple of books for Workman publishing, they are going to send me a few copies to give away on my site. I know how you like free books. :-)
Book Reviews Comming
Dan, thanks, but I still have to get my Return To The Moon (chapter by chapter) review done, and then one more book (On to Mars 2)... but then hell yeah, send me free stuff.
Aizlynne, I'm finding it hard to post something every day too. I'll be getting back into it more regularly soon, though, I promise.
