How Did You Find Me?
There’s a website called How Did You Find Me?, and it’s collecting the stories of how people ended up on the site. I found it because someone I know posted the link, and I clicked over to see it. But then there is the story of how I found that person. You can see how this can get interesting.
How did you find yourself here? If you clicked on a Facebook link, what prompted you to click? If it was shared by a friend, how did you meet that friend? If you were searching Google, what were hoping to find? Why did you decide to check your email at the moment that you did?
I didn’t expect to like reading the path people took to reach the site as much as I did. I think it would be even more meaningful to hear how someone ended up on a certain blog in a community; e.g., how did you find A Little Pregnant and what got you to click over in the first place. I think A Little Pregnant may have been the first ALI blog I found. Unless my first was Getupgrrl’s. I can’t remember what came first by this point.

I don’t remember exactly how I found you, but I suspect it was either through a Google search or by following the links on someone else’s blog/blogroll, back in late 2006/early 2007. I was either active or lurking on several infertility/childless communities/message boards, and I would Google to find new resources, and I think that’s how I found ALI blogs. A few of the early ones I remember reading include The Open Door, A Velvet Cage (she was childless), and another one by a childless blogger named Manuela from Vancouver (Thin Pink Line?). (She closed it down not long after I started reading.) And then, around the same time, you & Pamela at Coming2Terms. 🙂
