@FediFollows @TidBITS I think we've outlasted every Internet-only tech publication that predated TidBITS in 1990.

@adamengst

Congrats! 👏 What was the first platform it was on? An email list?

@FediFollows The very first distribution was BCC in email from an IBM mainframe at Cornell. That crashed a Navy VAX, so we moved it to Usenet News. Eventually, first someone at Rice University, hosted it on their LISTSERV platform. https://tidbits.com/1994/04/18/tidbits-history/ and follow along with https://tidbits.com/series/tidbits-history/
TidBITS History - TidBITS

The first issue of TidBITS is dated 16-Apr-90. I sit here, four years later, working on our 222nd issue, and think about all that has changed and all that has remained the same
