I don't still have the white coat we all wore for the live launch on Tomorrow's World (and why isn't that still running, eh?) but I do still know where my towel is.

The site went live in the very early hours of the 28th. Most of the team slept in the office that night. I was sleeping next to the database and I had to force myself to stop checking how many people had signed up every two minutes so I could get some sleep.

By the next morning we were all pretty whiffy, so I needed to buy a towel. Luckily, being in Covent Garden, there was a rather splendid stall selling large colourful towels, so I bought one of those so I could have a shower.

I still have that same towel, and still use it all the time. It's lasted pretty well.

So has h2g2, really. Happy Birthday.

Jim...no combination of smileys can possibly express our ongoing debt to you.

So...a simple thank you. And Happy Birthday! And please...have a new on us!

You guys and gals all rock

Big, big, big thank-yous.


For the non-Brits, what's the relevance of the British Library?

Would love to hear any other ten year old stories

Jim - did you think your code would still be running strong ten years on?!

You did a good job
