Mobile eBooks Etc started in September 12, 2007 with the first post “Why Glitch?” but my permalink is hello world 2. It was indeed a simple post, for the sake of making an initial post. That time, I wasn’t new to blogging stuff since I moblog (mobile blog) way back in year 2004 with contents related also to mobile ebooks. My old blog provider became too unreliable because of many blog hackers. That’s a long and different story.

Blogging in the real blogosphere is a never ending process. I became preoccupied learning the “basics of blogging”. Actually, I started blogging at wordpress.com and eventually got the PR5 until I decided to moved to my own domain and a web host, January 8, 2008. Obviously, I lost my PageRank and got a PR4 last May 1 and become a PR3 two months ago. Looking back and analyzing how am I doing on blogging about mobile ebooks and other related stuff, I could say that I learned a lot from my mistakes, gained friends, share what I have but as I’ve said blogging is a never ending process. This blog is still my baby and my “guinea pig”. LOL

I am not a full time blogger, I have my personal blog, glitchline which happens to be updated every 2-3 days just like this blog and used to be on blogspot. Since this month is my 1st year anniversary, I don’t have much to give but a domain name and link ads. If your blog provider is blogspot, this is your chance to have your own domain. Your chosen domain name depends on the availability.
