Today, this little ol blog passed through its 1 millionth hit. Not bad even if I do say so myself, we started the blog almost 2 years ago. I have had some hiccups along the way where I burnt out - a bloggers life is a tough life. Give it a try, to consistently get useful content out and not blather on about a millionth hit takes some committed effort.
There are now more than 250 technical (for the most part) articles making the blog a good BIP resource. That said we are trying to work on getting some of this content into the core documentation. The search capabilities are not great, I now use Google directly to find stuff - the blog is pretty near the top of most BIP realated searches. Tagging articles is a pain in the backside - thats down to the blogging software we use, I believe we're migrating sometime in the near future to something much better.
So, congratulations readers, I write but you read and use and a million hits tells me its worth my while there are folks out there and Im not writing into a void. Keep the comments coming - I know I planned to get some web service stuff out there and I have had requests on the 'how-to' for the OAF common region - been caught up in other things this week - will try and deliver in the next week or so.

As a non-developer-type guy, most of what you write is Greek to me, but I consistently hear very positive feedback from my developer-type friends about your efforts. Keep up the great stuff. I do know how hard it is and you do a fine job! Glad to be hit number 1,000,001 :)
