As the original Google cook, I owe my personal 15-minutes of fame to the joint technologies of searching with Google and blogging about it with Blogger. Of course it was my daughter, Meg, who got me started with it all, back when she was working on the development of Blogger. So as a proud mom, what could be better than celebrating the confluence of these two favorites in the announcement of Blogger's purchase by Google. I'm cracking open a bottle of champagne and toasting the vision and dedication of the team that created Blogger and helped to launch the weblog phenomena.
