Contemplating the end of RAB, I thought of its origins. Why did the three of us come together to create this site?
Ben covered the basics in his own farewell post so apologies if I’m covering known ground. But this is the story as I remember and can document it.
In 2006 we were all writing on our own blogs — The Sporting Brews, Off The Facade, In George We Trust. At that stage in the evolution of blogging everyone read everyone else’s blogs, so we were all familiar with each other’s work. Ben and I both started new jobs in the second half of 2006 and were posting less frequently than we had previously.
