Today (roughly) marks the beginning of the 8th year of this website. From its humble beginnings as a database of wedding invitees and running journal, driven by a SQL Server 7.0 databse, to its now-familiar state, jonandnic.com has been our only truly permanent home for most of our marriage.
Things change, most of my tinkering time goes into an actual home now, and having a blog isn’t that unusual a concept anymore (I remember when no one knew what a “blog” was!) but our little corner of the web is still a wonderful history book of our lives together…
If anyone else wants to see what it used to look like, and how it transformed over the years, the internet archive has about 6 years of history on the site.

*The original internet archive servers were down when I checked and this is a mirror of their archive.
Congratulations on your eight years. That’s quite a record of perseverence, if nothing else, and a great way to record what you have been processing during that time.
