Well, I Guess That's All Folks ...

Okay folks, I guess that about does it for me. The next entry you see here should be coming from Journals Editor Jeff, who'll be tickling the keys starting tomorrow.

Before I go, I just did some checking through the Magic Smoke archive listings, and here's a few tidbits I found:

* My first blog entry here occurred on May 13, 2005

* Since then, I've posted 583 entries (well, 584 counting this one)

* That's an average of 34 entries a month

* My most prolific posting month was January, 2006, with 64 blog entries.

To get these numbers, I just went to my most recent monthly archive page, copied the monthly totals from the sidebar, and pasted them into a spreadsheet for some quick number crunching.

There are a whole bunch of other stats I could bring up -- Editors Picks and Guest Editors run, photos of myself posted, questions unanswered, outages reported (and cleared), etc.

Or, I could bring up different events -- hurricanes and terror attacks; the ads fiasco; blogger tributes; comment spammers; Live 8; and a whole lot of stories about people busted for blogging.

But, you know, the archives are going to stay right where they are, so you'll be free to relive the past whenever you feel like it. I get the feeling it won't be all that often, because Journals Editor Jeff has got a lot of great stuff planned.

As for me, I'm not going to be going that far -- all of the Community products and programming folks work pretty closely together. I'll be focused on the AIM Pages product, starting on the AIM Pages Team Blog among other things (it's currently an AOL Journal, though as noted, we're probably going to switch that to another blogging platform in the near future).

And of course, I'll need to create a new AIM Pages profile (since Jeff is going to take over the Journals Editor profile).

Anyway, thanks to everyone for making this such a great experience. Please keep blogging, and I'll see you in the funny papers.

Thanks -- Joe

: ( This is what happens when a girl goes off to be a flight attendant and takes too long to come back to her favorite journal editor (sorry Jeff, gotta get used to ya!). *puts pout face on* Joe, me and my silly crush is gonna miss you!

Sigh, I suppose I am off to check out the AIM pages to get my dose of Joe.
