dont know if any of the hundreds of devotees of dmtree recall dave winer. 

As blogging pioneer Dave Winer’s site turns 30, it’s a reminder that good writing and thinking has flourished beyond the reach of social media

anyone remember what year jim started dmtree? Was it 99?

• that would be my guess. i have some reference to 9.99 on dratfink but the truncated archive only has 2000 posts. jim and i had blogs on blogger prior to dmtree as well which i ported over and why drat fink looked so ridiculous beyond my lack of design capacity and general tastelessness.

• maybe others had blogs on blogger, too as alex piped up the next day or maybe dmtree existed in a form that was more atomized and less intertwined.

  This is the ever progressing beta of the new main page (treehouse). All functionality is local (i.e., this is the blogger replacement.) The guts are working with the exception of the discussion features, but none of the interface is finalized. The layout will definitely be changing.

• so makes sense i would say 9.99 as we had i think the 25th and 26th account on blogger. 

  Pyra Labs launched Blogger on August 23, 1999.

• Yes it was late 1999; my first post was December 12th. I remember Jim saying he thought it was important to launch in the 20th century.
