The first blog

The first blog ever was said to be written by Justin Hall in 1994. Three years later, the word weblog was coined, and which is now better known as a blog. Now, after 15 years, I am finally catching up with the trend. I am part of the 2009 blog-statistic: being one of the 190 000 people in the world who start a blog per day.

The first time I heard of the existence of blogs was way back in 2005 when I worked as a reporter for Sveriges Radio, the Swedish broadcasting company. The radio program was called P4 Extra whose host then was famous TV-personality Rickard Olsson. The topic was blogging and mobbing. Or was it mobbing through blogging? For it seemed that some bloggers mob through their blogs.

Well, this won't be such a nasty blog. It's an ordinary "diary" about an ordinary family who's having such a swell time! This blog is named after my 1,5 year old daughter's favorite French cartoon characters, Barbafamiljen.
