Bloggers

Continuing on with my previous post, I found myself on the wiki page of one of the actors and this excerpt:

Kitabayashi won two other Best Actress awards, from the Kinema Junpo Awards and from the Mainichi Film Concours

The name “Mainichi” breaks down into a cryptic “main itchy”... and if you have an itch, scratch it... so, on the Mainichi wiki page we arrive at this excerpt:

On 15 January 2004, Mainichi Shimbun and MSN Japan announced they were to merge their websites. The partnership has been known as MSN-Mainichi Interactive, effective since 1 April 2004.^[6] On 18 September 2007, Mainichi announced the launch of their new website, mainichi.jp, which would include "heavy use of social bookmarking, RSS and blog parts" and would "pay attention to bloggers".

Hmmm, I don’t know why I haven’t investigated blogger before... given that I am one.   On the “bloggers” wiki page we arrive at:

Evan Williams and Meg Hourihan (Pyra Labs) launched Blogger.com in August 1999 (purchased by Google in February 2003)

• Evan Clark "Ev" Williams (born March 31, 1972) 
• Meg Hourihan (born January 1 found here)

Hmmm, end of war and a new beginning.  Note this next excerpt:

Bruce Ableson is best known as the inventor of Open Diary, the first online blogging community.  He launched Open Diary in October 1998, which soon grew to thousands of online diaries. Open Diary innovated the reader comment, becoming the first blog community where readers could add comments to other writers' blog entries

• Bruce Ableson (born September 16, 1963) 

I began this post and my previous post on September 16... so an addition to the “Timely” pattern cluster.
