As someone who's started two companies, I know the horror and thrill that comes with giving up a steady paycheck to follow a dream, and I'm so happy to see that Jason has decided to join the ranks of entrepreneurs and devote himself to full-time blogging at kottke.org.
Jason is not going to support himself through advertising, rather he is asking for readers to act as micropatrons of his site and contribute to its upkeep. Please consider supporting him, not only because he writes a great site and because supporting dreams is important. This is the chance to support something new: an "amateur" deciding to edit a blog full-time without corporate support and without advertising. It's a long time blogger chosing to go pro, and Jason is the perfect person to do it.
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?"
