A record of the everyday
Small posts.
A longer story.
Photographs, things I was learning, conversations along the way. A browse through my Twitter / X archive, one year or one remembered word at a time.

New learning routine: Nighttime reading on kindle paperwhite (No connected devices allowed upstairs) Highlight key sections on device. Sunday morning sync, is paper-based note taking using the iPad kindle app to jump around those highlights. Dog is optional but preferable. https://t.co/Wc6CePUX6J

‘Electronic Mail’ A case study from 1987 about how it could revolutionise the modern office. Apparently I’ve kept this in various attics for nearly 35 years… https://t.co/En2k3IeWHA

Floppy discs from the late 90’s - apparently with some early HTML pages I had created. I’d better see if I can dig out the usb floppy disk drive. https://t.co/uQ6209HQ8f

Current view: My view also includes a black #springador #puppy on a black sofa, who has yet to learn that while during the week many of the family are up by 6.15am… the protocol for weekends is somewhat different! https://t.co/W1wgaNUvKo

@mxstbr @HTTPArchive I volunteered to contribute to the media chapter 2 years ago, and it was a great experience - lots of great people endeavouring to give data-driven insights into current web trends and to highlight missed potential. I’m sure they (and we all) would value your contributions.

@benwerd … as you know I started very slowly building Storyus several years ago - and my favourite stories are one like this, where we stopped to pick berries one day: https://t.co/Pl1is1ySqL …. As well as failing fast, there’s a case for succeeding slowly

Beautiful night out there. One of the joys of winter is the quality of the night sky is glorious to behold even in late evening. https://t.co/nsZ3n1FycD

"A Gentleman in Moscow" by Amor Towles - What a treat to read Not something I would have picked up ordinarily - but recommended on the @vercel #booklist channel, and read without any context (or prior notion of its popularity) and it was fabulous. https://t.co/S2gB6apDES https://t.co/WcfUGTTvSR

Plan in decades. Think in years. Work in months. Live in days. Loved putting together our family @StoryusLife timeline for 2021 - 'joining the dots' by looking backward makes so much of the year appear a lot more orderly than it felt at the time! #reflections2021 #slowsocial https://t.co/zyaqibuvoe

A record, with its context.
These are the words and pictures from an earlier moment. Roles, opinions, links and like counts reflect the archive; they aren’t a live feed. Historical references to Vercel and other employers remain where they belong.
The export includes 84 video and 25 GIF references without their media files. Their posts remain searchable, with links to the originals. Those links may no longer be available.
How this version is made
Laravel searches the archive and sends 24 matching posts at a time. The photographs are served as smaller, responsive images and can be opened for a closer look. Search, year and media choices are kept in the URL so a view can be shared. Precise location fields and account metadata from the raw export are excluded.
