It's going to be OK.

November 21, 2000 in

It's going to be OK. Even though it's raining, even though I'm tired, even though there are a million errors in Blogger right now and everyone's freaking out about them, it will all be OK. Things will get fixed. Email will get answered. Posts will publish. People will survive. Contrary to popular belief (read: bloggers' belief), there are more important things in the world than Blogger. (This is mostly a note to myself.)

Creaking to the post office
on my rusty bike
I saw one purple iris
wild in the wet green
of the rice field.
I wanted to send it to you.
I can only tell you
it was there.

What's this site?

You are reading the personal blog of Meg Hourihan. I co-founded the company that created Blogger (now owned by Google). You can read more about me on the about page.

This site is updated several times a week, and has been since May, 1999. General topics of interest include food, travel, technology, and women's rights. If you'd like to get in touch with me, please visit the contact page for details.

What else is there?

There are photos, some recipes, a list of articles I've written, and a reading list of books I've read and enjoyed. There is also a long list of my speaking engagements where I've presented on topics such as blogging, web development, and entrepreneurship.

The most current blog content is on the front page. Older content is available by month in the monthly archives.

At the BlogHer Conference 2006, I will be joining Caterina Fake in a keynote discussion with Marnie Webb to discuss, "What's Next?: What's next in tech? Is 'Web 2.0' hype? Or hip? And what's next once you grab your brass ring?"
