My last actual post was 1 year ago. And it was only the annual Cities report (2010 will be posted in a few hours)

In that time I have moved out of the house I have lived in for 15 years, and I am almost exclusively been posting on twitter. The Books, Content and Me pages are hopelessly out of date. The book in the left corner under Reading? Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman was finished in 2006.

Yesterday was the 10th anniversary of my first post on Blogger. Back then this blog was hosted on Blogspot (as it is once again now). I never consider those first 2 posts to be the actual start of the blog, but I never deleted them either.

I have always considered January 2001 to be the actual start. That is when I customized my page to look like this and moved the blog to my Geocities site, http://www.geocities.com/mcutillo/, (which is now defunct as all things Geocities have died) and actually started writing stuff.

On May 1st, 2001 I purchased the domain name jadedturtle.com. On September 8th, 2001 I created the current template for the site, which is still used to this day. In April 2002 I finally moved the site to a shared server hosted on LogJamming. That server was hacked on May 31st, 2004 and I considered moving to a new host, but as they stopped billing me I stayed for almost a year. I finally moved to Textdrive (now Joyent) in April 2005 when I purchased a VC lifetime host plan. I then purchased a Mixed Grill update package on January 31st, 2006.

I have made only minor changes to this site since. The major one being on April 30th of this year when I had to move the blog to blogspot as Blogger stopped allowing outside FTP publishing.

I believe I will be changing that soon. (But I have said this many times) This blogspot will stay, but I will be changing the main page to jadedturtle.com soon. I may move a new blog to one of my other domain names or I may just just stay on twitter. Or I may just go away, or walk across the USA, or live.

But 10 years is a good time to make a change.
