Read more ramblings from Rob ... if you wish!

RobG:

Rob you're doing a very fine job. I think cross-linking Hints and your Blog will knit/glue the Hint community tighter.

You must have started macosxhints.com before Nov 2000 surely because how come my profile says "Member since Tue, Nov 30 '99 at 12:00AM".

Hmmm - where's the ref in my profile to the article written way back at http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20010613140025184&query=swap+page+memory+RAM which people still ask me about or even ref it in their reply to me without realizing I wrote it.

Keep up the good work - much appreciated from my desk.

---
Regards... Barry Sharp

Actually, that date is a leftover bug from one of the Geeklog upgrades. The first versions of Geeklog I used didn't even record date registered for users -- the first 22,000+ users here (yours truly included) have reg dates of "0000-00-00 00:00:00." As a point of historical note, the first user with a registration date is "powerbark," who registered on February 16th, 2003, at 8:10pm.

For whatever reason, Geeklog parses that into November 30, 1999 in the profile page. The site went live on November 4th of 2000.
