Happy Anniversary to a Blog Pioneer

Dave Winer was one of the first bloggers, and an unquestioned pioneer in developing blog tools and other key technologies we in the “read-write Web” world take for granted today. His blog, Scripting News, is 10 years old today — and he’s put up what looks like the page that graced the site a decade ago.

Here’s a toast to Dave’s great work, and wishes for decades more to come.

    Thanks Dan. Yes, it is an edited version of Scripting News 10 years ago today.

    The only changes I made were to direct broken links into the archive.org versions, where they exist.

    I explain this in the RSS feed (which of course didn’t exist on 4/1/97).

    Dave, nice idea to use archive.org for some old links…
