#2  IIRC, she was not only the oldest Blogger but her blog-website per se was also one of the first [but not THE first]back in the 1990's + by a woman + wid forum/messageboard. IIRC, 1990's > SHE WAS KUDOED FOR BEING A NET PIONEER AS A BLOGGER + AS A WOMAN.

D *** NG, DON'T RECALL RIGHT NOW BUT THERE WAS A BRIT MEDIA/NET ARTICLE RECENTLY ON WOMEN MEETING TOGETHER TO DISCUSS "SERIOUS" WORLDLY + PROFESSIONAL ISSUES AND PROBS, + RUNNING THE WORLD.

Appropriate in honor of her passing and being a Net pioneer.
