Power of One

I think part of what Mike Little showed with his comment on my blog that led to the creation of WordPress, is that it’s not about how many views you have, how many likes, trying to max all your stats… sometimes a single connection to another human is all that matters.

All it takes is a spark.

That’s what is beautiful about blogging. It’s too bad the advertising and social media platforms got us all caught up in status games for the past 15 years.

All you need is one view, one like, one comment, to change your life.

  1. I’ve had that experience in the past, although, not remotely at the same scale, but something that made a big difference in my life. I got my first job opportunity because of my blog. I’ve even had someone reach out to me to acquire one of my open source projects because of my blog.

  2. This post along with “The Intrinsic Value of Blogging” (ma.tt/2014/01/intrinsic-blogging) have always been an inspiration for me to write a blog.
