Oddbean new post about login | logout @79067dd7 ah yes, old CDs that no longer work…alas I have a couple of those too. I also have all the old files (Movable Type and even Radio Useeland), but the one thing I wish I’d done more in the old days was save screenshots. One day I might try and reconstruct some of the early versions of RWW.
@efc162a0 Go for it, as I didn’t redo the first Lucire home page and I regret it! I did re-upload some retro pages though, at least the ones I could access: https://lucire.com/insider/20230110/five-from-1999-a-more-experimental-optimistic-time/ But yeah, screenshots took up a lot of space in those days—no PNG and TIFFs were the most reliable form, and I didn’t want to keep heaps of TIFFs. A real pity. We were making history but didn’t save the early stuff for posterity!
