I just found this blog – kicking about on servers I’d long forgotten about – and thought I’d give it a little tidy up. Mainly for my own amusement during a period of convalescence to see what there might be here. Going through some of the posts was a real blast from the past; removing outdated Flash embed code, updating code not using https, reviewing calls to the Flickr API… yes – Flickr! And delicio.us, Last.fm and the rest.
It being New Years, I’ve been reflecting on times past and of things to come.
5 years since the first mentions of a new “viral pneumonia” in Wuhan. 20 years since we escaped the boxing day tsumani – that still baffles my guilty-to-have-survived mind.
And this blog has served as a useful reminder to me of the more mundane that passes in time too – and how that change imperceptibly creeps along. So here it remains as a totem. For now, at least.
