15 years ago today I created my first web page. Unfortunately this predates The Wayback Machine by a couple of years so there is no historic evidence to back up my claim. I just happen know because my Emacs told me. Digging through an old backup tarball revealed some html pages dated a week later. So today seems about right.
The home page was very simple and pretty much just mirorred the contents of my existing .plan. I can see in a tape inventory file that I have a copy of both files but I'm too lazy to hook up a DAT drive to restore them right now.
Reminiscing about this makes me wonder whether 15 years of web presence is enough. It certainly feels like it is. And common wisdom dictates that 15 years of email is plenty for one lifetime...
