The first post on this site was on March 14, 2000. I date my actual “blogaversary” to a post called “Quarterly Update (i)” that appeared on June 11, 2001, because that’s when I really started blogging in earnest, but the first iteration of this site came on line over a year earlier. It was then hosted on my Power Mac 7200/90 in a locally running Manila instance, so it’s a continuous miracle that it ever got on the web at all.
My writing has ebbed and flowed here over the years, but right now I’m just grateful that I have someplace I can share my thoughts.
Fun fact: the anniversary of Jarrett House North is on the same day as Kottke.org’s anniversary, just two years later.
Yay JHN! Long may she continue.
