I've just spent the last half hour restoring some of my old websites (dating back to around 2004).

I thought it would be interesting to see how they'd changed.

I did something like this back in early 2004, and ended up with a PDF document called "Dalegroup Evolved".

This time it is a little more interactive as the websites are live (click on the screen shots to visit the site) :)

So the first on my list:

dalegroup.net - 2004

Dalegroup.net was my primary website before I started a blog. This site ran on one of my first CMS' and it is still working on PHP5 :)

I setup GD to generate the news titles into a coloured image that changed for each news item.

blog.dalegroup.net - 2005

This site was my first "real" blog and could be found at blog.dalegroup.net (no longer exists). This site ran on a script I called getnews and was simply a basic blog program I wrote during the HSC.

The customised CSS styles still work too!

bluetrait.com - 2007

Bluetrait was my first site completely separate from dalegroup. I don't remember where the name came from but the idea behind it was to write a blog script that people could download and use.

So bluetrait ran on Bluetrait 1 which worked pretty well for a few years.

And now we're at the end of 2007. Bluetrait.com is still around and is currently running Bluetrait 2 Alpha-2.
