Classic WebWord (Ancient Blog Postings Archive)
I’ll keep this short and sweet. Earlier this year, Chris McEvoy informed me that he rebuilt WebWord postings and comments from July 2001 through Oct 2003. This “lost” content is now found, posted, and completely available to you.
I’ll add a more permanent link in the navigation when time permits. Done!
p.s. I really miss the WebWord logo. Need to give that some room on the site too. Here’s some love for now…

hi JSR - when I click on “WebWord Monthly Statistics” it redirect to the Microsoft site.

Hi Daniel -
this posting - Classic Webword Postings contains a link error in the first link - WebWord Monthly Statistics.
It has an extraneous ‘http://’ at its start which leads to the reason you are redirected to the Microsoft site. You can easily copy the link into the address bar and edit the extra out to get there.
This is caused probably because you have never reset the Microsoft defaults for when a malformed link is encountered.
Maybe the setting ‘Show friendly HTTP error messages’ performs the redirection; I’m not sure.

Sorry, the URL problem was my fault. Thanks for fixing it John.
As we are wandering down memory lane, how about the return of “More Sex For Mastadons”?

[…] I first wrote about OXO back in December 2002. (Thanks again, Chris. I can now point to older WebWord postings!) […]
