Perhaps it’s just the time of year but I was on the internets amazing Wayback machine if you haven’t checked it out you really should. Its a archive of snapshots of the internet as it was throughout the last 13+ years its been running.

My site is listed on there as far back as 2004 when I think I first registered it, with my mum and sister present we picked the name as a place for all our emails. Later I took over the running and it caused more than a couple of family arguments when I switched hosts/email services, before settling with Google Apps which is amazing also!

So whats this post about?

Not much to be honest, I just wanted to point out that I had been through all the archived pages I could find on there and imported all the missing posts that I could find, and dated them correctly. In places there is content missing and it is noted so for example links to Digg or incomplete posts.

Anyway feel free to have a look at my archive as its quite extensive although reading it my self supprisingly poor quality. I have throughout time has 3 or 4 different WordPress installations each time wiping the content as I flipped back and forth in opinion as to wheather it was better to re-invent the wheel and write my own CMS or not.

I have finally settled on WordPress and now I felt it was a good time to integrate all my old posts…. MANUALLY!

Anyway enjoy the read if you can be bothered and thanks to ling_ling of the Flickr community for the photo used.
