Mother of Mercy, Nine Years of Dave Winer!

I am saying that I have
something to say about how
to say what I have to say.

Uberblogger, Harvard Auditor, and self-confessed software genius Dave Winer celebrates nine years of all-Dave-all-the-time at: Scripting News in Manila

Nine years ago on this day I wrote my first DaveNet essay. This was the first of a rapid string of epiphanies that led to this one: I can publish my own ideas. I don't have to wait for anyone else to get it.
Nor wait for anyone else to edit it. At least, he didn't claim to have invented it.

His epiphany for today is:

"One of the things I miss most about living on the West Coast is the ability to call people on the East Coast at 5AM. "

Rumors a petition is being circulated in the Blogsphere to Recall Dave Winer are probably untrue.
