Blast from the Past – The Gear Guru

It’s been 27 years since I created my original website, The Gear Guru, which was founded in October 1997 on Geocities of all places. Even better, I created it on NIPRNET dialup over DSN from Exercise Foal Eagle 97 at K2 in Korea to Hurlburt Field. Eventually it did receive a proper URL: gear-guru.net.

The Way Back Machine has some archived versions of the site. Check them out if you want to know the secret origins of SSD, back when you had to create pages via HTML.

It was a lot of fun when I did it, and I learned a lot.
