What Jamie wrote
I love this celebratory post from Kottke marking his blogs 25th year!
My love for the web has ebbed and flowed in the years since, but mainly it’s persisted — so much so that as of today, I’ve been writing kottke.org for 25 years. A little context for just how long that is: kottke.org is older than Google. 25 years is more than half of my life, spanning four decades (the 90s, 00s, 10s, and 20s) and around 40,000 posts — almost cartoonishly long for a medium optimized for impermanence.
The artifact that we create when we write on our own website is so great. My blog is nearly 19 years old.
