WebWord Comment -- I wrote an article about ProWebSite back in November 1999. Here is something a reader sent to me today about ProWebSite. Should I be amazed that old content is still valuable to people?

No, you shouldn't be amazed that old content is still valuable. It can help validate or invalidate current assumptions.

It can provide a map of "how on earth did we get ourselves into this position?" Or, better yet, "why do we do it this way?" It can document how something - an idea, an opinion, a product, a service - changed over time as more was discovered or learned.

Granted, capital-H History is written by the victors, but the history of everyday people and things provide context to current actions.

I searched Google for "ProWebSite" and your article "How ProWebSite stuck it to me" was 4th on the list - congratulations! Keep the article online until ProWebSite makes a public apology and pays compensation with interest.
