Meryl's Notes Blog

Happy 49th Birthday, www.zeldman.com! OK, it’s really 7, but it deserves dog years calculation since this is the Internet. He is now entering his 8th year online.

I’d like to take a moment to thank Jeffrey for being so passionate about the Web and design, for keeping ALA going for so long despite getting no monetary restitution, for taking the time to write a My Glamorous Life story when inspiration hits, for keeping us informed on anything that impacts Web design, and just for being the amazing person he is.

Recently, he wrote an apology for not having a My Glamorous Life story in a long time. That’s OK. He doesn’t owe us. We should be grateful to hear from him at all, much less on a regular basis. Maintaining a Web site, blog, stories, ezine, business (great redesign, BTW) and God knows whatever else is a thankless job. Guess what? He has a life outside of this, ya know? Job, special person, and book. Thanks for all you do, J.
