Blog > Travel Back in Time

01 October 2008

Seven years is a long time in the history of the web, do you remember when Yahoo reined supreme... and Google were barely a blip on the map.

Google do, which is why to celebrate their tenth anniversary they have brought their oldest available index back to life. You can see it here... but only for a limited period.

Of course you won't find YouTube, Facebook or MySpace in this index... but blow me down... you will find us. Bless. We are number eight (on a search for "Semantic") out of only 426,000 matches.

Today, seven years later, we are still there, at about the same position in Google's latest index... on a search of 23,400,000 matches!

Pssst... over here!

Hi there. Thanks for visiting Semantic's old blog. Yep, that's right... this is an archive of stories from December 2005 and June 2010.

Our wit and wisdom now lives at blog.semantic.co.uk.

(Which is not to say that there's plenty worth reading here... you lucky devil.)
