Can’t believe she started 10 years ago. I still remember her name as one of the first to actually get fired from her job because of this thing she did online (a.k.a blogging). Here’s Dooce on the what she thinks of Facebook etc. (not too coincidentally, this is exactly the way I use them too):
“People keep saying that Twitter and Facebook are going to replace blogging. But people use Facebook to keep in touch and people use blogs to tell stories. There are times on Twitter when I find someone and I want to find what else they write, I’m looking around to see if they have a Tumblr or a blog.”

I felt old when I read the article on Dooce too. Felt like her firing story wasn’t in the recent past and not a growing up memory.
Yes, right? So long ago it seems now!
