Another year has gone by and this site turns 15 years old this week. That's pretty old in the web world. The web of 2009 is very different from 1994. Back then there were no blogs, communities or RSS feeds. Google was not even started and popular sites like YouTube,...
This site turns 14 years old this week. That's pretty old for something in the web world. This was a few months before the browser Netscape was released. Even though I had had an email adress for several years, 1994 was the year I got my first mobile phone and...
Remember those tag clouds that were so popular a few years back? There is a new toy in town which analyzes a feed and present a word map of your recent activity. This is how Mink Machine looks through the eyes of Wordle: Mink Machine as seen by Wordle. Judging...
After months of struggle and maintenance, Mink Machine has finally found a new place to settle. This is the fourth move since 1994! The new server is harder, better, faster, stronger - just as Daft Punk would put it. One of the things that brought the old server down on...

The server maintenance took a while longer than originally planned since I ran into every single error known to man. I was actually quite amazed that so many components could cause so much trouble at the same time. The only thing that worked flawlessly was the power chord... Finally all...
With 500 visitors per day to this site, excluding an average of 90 written spam entries the same day, it takes some toll on my web garden. Due to several reasons I've decided to momentarily increase the level of protection on this site. This could eventually present a minor obstacle...
This site has now been online for ten years! Time flies. In 1994, when I took my first humle steps in the art of HTML, the tools were simple in my Solaris environment: Writing HTML in Emacs, hit "c-x c-s" and viewing the result in the Mosaic browser. Later that...
