At the risk of tooting my own horn, here's something I found fairly cool. It is my announcement of one of the first, if not the first searchable mailing list archives on the web ( http://1997.webhistory.org/www.lists/www-html.1994q3/0001.html). It's hard for me to really believe that it's been more than 13 years since I created it. It led fairly directly to many cool things.
I get this kind of alert now and then when archive pages are updated even though they really haven't changed. This particular one is from the WWW-HTML list, where standards for HTML were discussed in the early days of the web. And mid-1994 really was the early days, when it was just starting gain some momentum. I just spent a little time reading what I was writing about in 1994. A lot of what I thought would happen did... and we still have some of the same issues with the web. And many the people who were involved back then went on to do cool stuff. I'm not sure I'd have guessed that it would be interesting to be able to look back at what I was discussing. None of us realized how big the web would become.
