Evan Williams (Ev) - Blogger, Twitter, Medium

Ev released the diary Web site to the world. He called it Blogger, a word that had not existed until then. He believed it would allow people without any computer-programming knowledge to create a Web log, or blog. 

He had a vision for Blogger, where anyone could have their own blog, the equivalent of their own online newspaper. 

“Push-button publishing for the people.” It was Blogger’s motto.

Google bought Blogger for Tens of millions of dollars. Ev became famous.
