I am glad you decided not to retire. I read this blog although I will say that it is not often enough, normally when I get some free time to surf and not work. I stumbled upon your blog a while ago and over the past few months I somehow, through my searches, kept ending up back here (which is why I decided to start commenting). Blogs concerning the web industry by black women are far and few between. Reading your posts helps me feel like I am not so alone in this industry. Thank you so much for blogging, your topics are interesting and relevant to life as a black women in the web industry. Happy Belated 6th Anniversary!

Don't stop blogging.

I have been posting sporadically for the past six months now. But every once in while, I get some ideas poppin in my head and I write, like, 4 posts in a day.

We all know you are very busy. We are still here and we keep coming back.

Happy Blog Anniversary!

Glad you ain't dead yet. I saw your "Fin" post in my feedreader (bloglines) and decided to pop in to say g'bye. It was a surprise to see an error message when I came by.

Anyway, we realize you are here, there and everywhere. No rush, no stress. Post when time and inspiration meet. Mebbe it would help if you can define what you want this space to be about vs the other blog spots?

For what it's worth, I still read you. And I'm glad I do!

Hey There!! Keep on blogging on! Though you may change your mind, You do have fans who value your postings,they may be lurking. (shame on me) I also value your voice the same as ABenton does, to have your own space and representing is a positive. I would never have known about 40 yr old krumpers otherwise! Happy Belated Anniversary.

I'm still here Lynne. Much luv!

I've been reading your blog for at least 5.5 years.. And I dig it.
I know you don't post as often, gosh I still remember the white, yellow and blue layout... (hmm actually there wasn't a lot of blue it was kinda just like a yellow line across the top).
I've been reading for ages.. you are still one of my favourite reads even though you don't post as often. There aren't that many women web authors/writers out there and when I started reading you just after i graduated when I decided that even though most of my mates were going on to Network Engineering or sys. admin, this was the path I wanted to go down.
I don't really blog about what I do, as my blog is a personal blog, but I'd definitely like to let you know that I really, really dig what you write.. for real.

So from one IT chick to another (all the way across the atlantic).. Thanks for what you do.

When I turned 5 earlier this year, I hung up my hip-hop blog for good. It became a burden rather than a joy, like it used to be. Also, because I broke into "the business" through blogging, I feel like I need to move on and do different things.

My sentiments exactly. You make a good point. The many times I've talked about quitting, it's exactly because of that. I want to work on many projects that I often don't have the time for. And my work, for many years now, has been on the Web -- dealing with content strategy, and the business for web sites and mobile applications overall. So it's like I come here and I'm like enough already.

But then again, I still do often have access to news that others don't. And if I have the time to share it, I will.

Peace.
