New post! I wrote up some details about building my retro website, including the path taken to the current version, how it's deployed, and how fun it is to build with HTML4.

Building a Website Fit for 1999

Over the last week I’ve had a lot of fun building a little retro-themed website that I’m hosting at home. Inspired by Ruben’s Retro Corner I’ve been meaning to do this for a while, and actually started on it in June last year. More recently Joel Humphries shared on The Sizzle forum that he’d built a little site that he was hosting at home on a Raspberry Pi. This reignited my interest in getting my own site up again. For the fun of it I decided to implement it in HTML4 and serve it over plain HTTP so that it would work on old computers. The site in IE 4.01 on Mac OS 8.1
