It was dubbed Kinja in October 2003.
On February 11, 2013, Kinja 1.0 was launched on !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Changes included an entire site and platform redesign, favoring a more !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! -esque design.

Usage
Kinja is a personal web service that allowed its users to "bookmark" !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , Kinja providing the user with excerpts of recent posts of the chosen logs. These excerpts, known as personal "digests", are compiled into one page's worth of excerpts, with other categorized compilations available based on such labels as media, music, liberal, conservative, and more. A user's personal choice of digests were easily available to any outside user, allowing others to share their favorite blogs and recent blog posts. Utilizing a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! dubbed Kinjabot, (similar to Google's !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ) Kinja creates an internal index of all available web logs as defined by Kinjabot.
