Open Thinking Turns Five
My first post to this blog is dated March 11, 2004. So this post marks the fifth birthday of my blog! Happy Birthday Open Thinking!!!
This space has helped me to enjoy some of the greatest learning experiences of my career. It has connected me to many brilliant thinkers. It has enabled me to write and evaluate ideas in the open. It has become a storehouse for my thoughts, and an important component of my digital identity.
Had anyone told me how important to me this would be five years later, I would have never believed it.
Please join me in wishing Open Thinking a happy fifth birthday!

5 already. My gosh, I remember when you were just a fresh newborn running on Movable Type.
Congratulations on a long blog run, and I’ll wish you the same on your 10th.

I don’t know when exactly I started reading your posts, so I won’t be able to celebrate “our” birthday. However, it’s certainly inspired my thoughts. Thank you.

Happy 5th blog birthday. I just looked back to my first post, it was March 31st, 2007. I can’t believe it has only been 2 years for me. It feels like I have been blogging forever (in a good way!).
Hope all is well in Canada!
