History

My personal blog has existed in some form or another since at least February 27, 2001.

You can’t see the first LiveJournal post from May 2001 anymore, but you can see its ported version on this blog.

It seems that I was using Blogger before that - I’ve recovered some of those posts and ported them here. See the February 27, 2001 post here.

Wayback Machine has snapshots of this site going as far back as November 27, 1999. It looks like I embedded the blogger feed on my site as http://cpbotha.net/cgi-bin/weblog.

After the blogger / LJ era, the blog spent some time as a Movable Type instance, then got on board the WordPress train shortly after it was introduced in 2003, and more recently it became a static site again, this time using Hugo.
