You could write whatever you wanted it in them, blathering joyfully about life, the universe, and everything until your Netscape browser crashed. Amid the chaos, three small-time bloggers known by their nom de plumes, Deadman, Articleman, and Genghis, decided to try something different. We called it dagblog, because DAG was an acronym for our pseudonyms, and it sounded kind of cool. Dagblog will live on as a static website. I was lucky to be able to use dagblog to launch a writing career.
