Thank Your First Commenter Day
I didn’t even know this was going on until I saw Flexo do it at Consumerism Commentary.
Well, the first comment ever by a reader was one of my friends who wrote a comment as Ace Wags, later to be changed to King Asa, on a post in which I compared all the DVD rental programs (fourth article I ever wrote).
The first blogger to comment on my site, and subsequently link to it, was JLP of All Things Financial and his comment was on a post in which I discussed the merits of mutual funds:
Good article. I’m going to post a link to it as well as a link to your blog (that is, if you don’t mind. If you do mind, let me know and I’ll take the link down).
Keep up the good work.
JLP
Did I mind? Hahahahaha yeah right. Since then I’ve linked to JLP a few times, interviewed him once, and we’ve helped each other improve our blogging (he’s helped me with financial issues and I’ve made technical suggestions) and it’s been a great relationship. Thanks JLP!

My first good friend that I’ve never actually met!

Thanks for the shout out. I still read your site almost daily and I’m always learning something new. Thanks for being a great friend and sharing your wealth of knowledge with us all.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Asa
