Wade’s 2,000th on Birmingham
I’m hurting my arm patting myself on the back, but this unremarkable entry represents post No. 2,000 on Wade on Birmingham.
While it took a mere 561 days to reach the first 1,000 posts, it took 722 days for this wry batch of 1,000 posts. Clearly, the economy is at fault.
This morning, I started one of my new careers as professional new media instructor, teaching my first class for the Birmingham Blogging Academy. I’m closing in on 2,000 tweets in my mere 67 days on Twitter (probably by Thursday at the current rate).
On Wednesday, I’ll be on a panel talking with University of Alabama students about the future of journalism.
And what exactly is the future of journalism? You’re looking at it. And it’s not just me, but everyone. Everyone is the future of journalism. Make it a good one.
Thanks to our readers, our friends and the good people of Birmingham. I love my hometown and feel blessed to be here.

Are you going to put a mirror in this post so I can see myself as the new face of journalism?

Thanks! I bet you’ll hit 2,000 before you know it.
