DMOZ Birthday
Posted by shadow575 on July 23, 2008
Wow time flies! Today marks my 4th ODP birthday, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me!
Hard to believe 4 years ago today, some nutty Meta editor (whom will remain nameless at least to non-editors, to protect their own reputation 
) goofed and pushed that accept button on my third (or so) editor application by mistake, instead of rejecting it. Hey everyone makes a mistake every now and then, right? Oh well I am glad they took that risk and let me try and break some things. Its been a fun roller coaster ride so far. Looking forward to the next four years.
I have been so swamped in real life I haven’t logged in to edit for quite a while now. I think I made a couple of edits a couple of weeks ago. I didn’t even realize my birthday was today, until an old friend turned ex-editor sent me a nice email a little while ago. I happened to be on line at the time and it spurred me to do some work.
What I did tonight:
- Reinstated a few editors who were requesting it.
- Cleared a few Reds from Indiana.
- Updated several URL’s adding some new one’s to save some of those reds.
- Caught up on email and the forums.
Later I might pop over to RZ and see what I have been missing as well. If I owe you a response its time to bump me again, as I think I got to everything I was lacking on. I hope to get more time online soon. I am also suffering many ISP related issues. My provider can’t seem to maintain a steady broadband signal to my area. My signal and connection is intermittent at best and often goes out in the middle of browsing.
Until next time!

Good to see you back on deck! Time does indeed fly by. I think my 5th anniversary is coming up in October, although I guess I have to subtract the four months that I’ve been an ex-editor, which puts me only just ahead of you in terms of editing time.
