@stefan I registered my personal domain in 1993! And I blogged two days ago.

@stefan I sorta do but as far as I know no one reads it.

@soaproot Still nice to have your own piece of the web!

And to clarify, a personal website here means a site about you, your work, side projects, etc.

Something that should come up as the first result when someone looks you up online.

@stefan That kind of assumes you operate under a single identity online/IRL

stefan, 2 months ago

@johnny True.

Still, if you have a few personal sites, the first option applies!

@stefan I went with 'something else' - I have several sites all over the place. That probably still counts. hahaha

@stefan I kinda do. I've got http://bibliowiki.com.pt. I wouldn't consider that personal, but the site is mine, so dunno how to answer that.

@jorgecandeias Good question! For the purpose of this poll, I'd say a personal site would be one where I can learn more about who you are, find links to your work, etc.

jorgecandeias, 2 months ago

@stefan OK. In that case, I also do, although it's about two decades outdated. Or more. But it's still online, so I guess it counts?...

stefan, 2 months ago

@jorgecandeias Definitely counts!

@stefan Lack of focus mostly. It takes some time and effort to set up, which is hard for me to put in given nobody's really asking for it.

I've thought of setting one up many times, but actually sitting down and doing it hasn't happened so far. There's always something else to do.
