Happy anniversary to my blog, started on this day 22 years ago, during SXSW. Actually a little tempted to get back to SXSW one of these years. Tech has changed so much, platforms come and go, but blogs remain.
Eric Walker well congratulations 🎉. I like how it coincided with an event as well. I feel like mine didn’t at all but also I think I had other things start and stop so probably not really sure of the true start.
Kuba Suder 🇵🇱🇺🇦 16 years so far on mine, started a couple of months after I started my first job :) Used to be at first on a platform named “Jogger” which allowed you to submit posts via Jabber, which is long gone now.
Mitch Wagner Happy anniversary! Have you always been at manton.org? If you ever decide to write about the different platforms you used over the years, I would read that with interest.
Manton Reece @MitchW Thanks! Yes, always manton.org. Long story short on the platforms: Radio Userland, Movable Type, WordPress, Micro.blog.
Kimberly Hirsh We started blogging about a year apart! Though it wasn’t at kimberlyhirsh.com, I posted for the first time (in hand-rolled HTML) on March 15, 2001.
Mitch Wagner I made the mistake of jumping domains a few times.
And I’m chuckling because I used the same platforms, in that order. With a brief side-quest to Tumblr. (As you may recall, I still use Tumblr but my primary blog is here.)
