Ten Years

Post by Scott Kirkessner » Thu Dec 18, 2008 11:43 pm

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to share that today is the 10th Anniversary of my website - Knight Rider 2000 Online.

It was my first foray into the WWW, and my very first website ever! It started as the Ultamate Knight Rider 2000 Site (and yes, I mis-spelled Ultimate) and I was 15 when I launched it.

With the advent of KR08 and other developments, lots of things have fallen to the back burner... and many things have changed since those glory days... tons of fan sites have come and gone... KRO, Mike's website, Knight Registries, Paul's and mine have stood the test of time.

Fan fiction was INSANELY popular for awhile... almost every other author you read had their own site for their own stories, and competition for readers was intense! Now everyone seems to have retreated to fanfiction.net and we haven't seen a lot of stories, but now with KR08 we have somewhat of a resurgence.

It's a nostalgic day for me... the first instance of my site was on Angelfire, it had a lot of simple text links, plus an image ripped off from Mike's site (sorry Mike!) After being embraced by the folks on this forum, I changed the name of my site to mirror this one and it became Knight Rider 2000 Online on January 1, 1999.

My time has even come to pass... but for about 5 years, I loved being one of the "regulars" who had a website and fic series that was well read/well visited, etc... The site isn't going anywhere, it will be there to still serve as reference. There are some goodies that have been sitting around that I just never got around to uploading.

And I am still writing - yes I know it's been 4 years since I wrote my last fiction, and 2 years since I re-wrote it. But I love to write, and I'll keep going, I just need more muses to go faster.

Soooo thanks to everyone, the old timeies who are still around who made this the best ten years of my life!
