I've been writing about search for over 10 years now but Danny Sullivan yesterday celebrated his 18th year anniversary of covering search.
Danny posted the accomplishment on Google+ saying, "My 18 year anniversary writing about search is today. So I guess I'm an adult at this now."
Like I said, I've been covering this space for a long time, not as long as Danny, but still a long time. I've seen people, personalities and search engines come and go. Danny has always been a figure in our industry, and more importantly, a rock-steady figure that has been here throughout it all.
So much so, he decided to post his first document when covering the space. Danny wrote this on Google+:
A piece of history in our industry. :)
If you have a moment, please drop Danny a note to thank him. He gets a ton of criticism being in his role but rarely do people say thanks.

Thank you Danny for you dedication to our industry. With the coverage and knowledge you have given us all over the years I believe you have allowed some of us to act like we know what the hell is going on in search. Big Ups!

Nice line: "I guess I'm an adult at this now." Danny , you're a true journalist who writes in-depth articles in an era of fluffy 500-word blog posts. Keep writing for people who like to read!
