The origins of the <blink> tag

Here is an article I posted in 2009.    I think it got picked up by a few of the tech sites as well.

Recently Google named their new HTML engine after blink:  http://blog.chromium.org/2013/04/blink-rendering-engine-for-chromium.html

And I'm definitely enjoying the name of this company:  http://blinktag.com/

It seems that blink is having a resurgence in 2013, I guess it's old enough now to be retro cool.
