TXP Make

PHP in templates is so last decade

Stardate 10923.65

A chance to share old memories.

Weblog – 1997.12

Hung out in Usenet all day long, learning this thing called the web. A blinking USR Sportster scraping alt.binaries, the imgur/r/nsfw of the time.

Wore a Red Hat, played with the web’s plumbing, ran my own Apache server.

We Blog – 1999.4

Tried out all the new personal publishing tools, like Blogger. Liked what I saw, just didn’t want to get stuck behind a walled garden, AOL had soured us.

PHP has matured from it’s origins in 1995, LAMP is officially taking off.

Textpattern – 2001.7

Dean Allen gives us a glimpse at the web publishing tool he is working on.

A Compaq Deskpro 6200, equipped with a Pentium Pro 200MHz, 128MB ram, and a 4.3GB SCSI drive, is serving content from the cable closet.

hcgtv – 2006.1

Settled on Textpattern after a 5 year evaluation of dynamic publishing apps.

The amassed tar.gz collection of PHP apps forms the basis for PHPCrossRef.

TXP CMS – 2015.7

Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Open Source, GPL, Fork me on GitHub.

Screw the walled garden, like me, follow me, right here.

But it’s all right now, I learned my lesson well
You see, ya can’t please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
