Layers and Signs

September 1st is a good day to write a blog post. Nine years ago today was the first day after I left my corporate job.

September 2015 is a portentous month, ending with the eclipse of the Super Blood Moon. The Fall Holy Days begin.

The creation waits with eager longing....

 

Ten years

It was ten years ago today that I published my first weblog post. Blogging was kind of a big deal back in those days, although not so much any more for me.

Here's a link to that first month of posts as recorded on Archive.org.

Some significant things have happened via the blog, for which I am truly thankful.

A new look

I finally decided to venture here to do something with my blog that I (sort of) transferred from my now-defunct ftp website: http://home.earthlink.net/~jbakke/

But, my, how things have changed since 2001! These templates are magical.

The end is nigh!

I logged in to Blogger to post a once-every-few-months' weblog entry, only to read this message:

FTP publishing will no longer be available after May 1, 2010.

You currently have blogs that are published using FTP. You must migrate your blogs to a new custom domain URL or a blogspot URL.

Yes, it is the end of an era (in Internet time). I have been limping along on this almost-to-capacity site (10 MB!!), which stopped displaying archives back in February 2007, using a blog design circa 2001. Not that I write much here now, but it is a little nostalgic finally to be evicted.
