This One Goes to 27

27 emoji birthday cakes on a garish yellow-green background

On this day 27 years ago, on March 14, 1998, I started this here website. I’m not sure what there is to say about the ridiculous length of time that I’ve spent doing this “moderately anachronistic thing” that I haven’t already said before:

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 β€” almost cartoonishly long for a medium optimized for impermanence.

As always, thank you so much for reading and for the membership support. πŸ’ž
