27 Years of Disquiet.com

Today, December 13, 2023, marks the 27th anniversary of when I started Disquiet.com (topic: ambient/electronic music, and more broadly the intersection of sound, culture, and technology). The website is so old that it predates the word “blog” by several years. I can’t imagine my past three decades — or the future, for that matter — without Disquiet. If you don’t have a blog as of today, then there’s no better day than today to start one. And if doing so is of interest, then here are two lengthier posts I’ve written about the benefits and process of blogging:

“Q: Why Blog? A: Blogs Are Great.” (2021)

“Bring Out Your Blogs” (2019)

For additional background, there’s a post I wrote two years ago, on the occasion of the site’s 25th anniversary, and ones on the 26th and 11th anniversaries. There are others, as well, on different anniversaries, all stabs at my memory of this website.

And that screenshot up top is what Disquiet.com looked like a year or so into its existence.
