A Backwoods CMS adventure

Tired of your same old CMS? Maybe take a small vacation from it and try this out. I’ll be your trail guide for this rustic web authoring adventure. While this is a vacation and it will have its charms, we will be roughing it, so be prepared to explore this computer history wilderness. Luckily, you can leave your bear mace at home.

We’re going to blog like you’ve never blogged before. Blog like it’s 1999… or rather 1997. Experience the future of yesterday’s content management systems and WYSIWYG editors, today!

reclaimhosting: Welcome to the Chat
Pilot: Working through this now and Taylor, this is amazing! 😍
taylor_jadin: Thanks! I’m pretty happy with it. I was kind of going for “what if a computer history exhibit/museum was just a blog post” and I think I got some of that.
mark: Hi Taylor (and Pilot!) I'm afraid to start, I may lose hours. Did you make your own emoji?
taylor_jadin: No, but i did make the that logo usinf Kid Pix and Photoshop 3.0!
Christina H: Oh my, I am so dating myself, but this feels frighteningly familiar from grad school days (92-2000). I was writing papers with this OS! :)
Christina H: I am really loving the emulated system here. It's not just giving you a taste of the environment, it's one you can actually use and create stuff with. Wow! And play games!
taylor_jadin: yeah the Infinite HD as well as Macintosh Garden and CD tabs for loading in other software are amazing!
Christina H: OMG the sounds are really bringing me back too. Thank you for this...it's so much fun!
Jim Groom: The late hour caught up with me last night, but I am returning to this backwoods authoring adventure this morning, I absolutely love the conceit as well as the execution. Now that's blogging, baby!
