Hello, everyone!
MOCpages turns 5 years old today! I can’t believe it...
Turn back the clock to 2003... Content sharing communities like flickr and
youtube didn’t even exist. Blogging was around, but not really mainstream
yet... Social networking was the hot new thing (remember Friendster??). When
MOCpages came on the scene, we didn’t even know what it was -- it was sort of
like blogging, sort of like “web hosting”, sort of like community...
Here’s my original announcement,
LUGNET post, “MOCpages is here”.
(OK, yes, I launched a few days early...)
Now, 53,000 LEGO creations later, MOCpages is one of the busiest LEGO
communities on the web. Almost 45,000 people visit every DAY, and that number
is always going up. I want to thank everyone out there who uses MOCpages for
making it what it is. I put the framework in place, but MOCpages would be
nothing without all the awesome creations!
It’s come a long way ... (Click to enlarge)
I can’t believe it’s been 5 years. :) (Gets me a little choked up, actually.)
:)
Feelin’ nostalgic,
Sean

| Hey Sean, Congratulations on your five years! It was really cool to look at your first week screen-capture and notice that the "MOC of the day" was mine. :) I'm proud to be a little tiny piece of this history. Bruce (17 years ago, 2-Apr-08, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

| (...) Happy belated birthday! It has been a long time, but the community has grown and with it, so has MOCPages. It will be exciting to see what the future holds! Joe Meno Editor, BrickJournal (17 years ago, 2-Apr-08, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

| (...) Congrats, Sean! I know the feeling too, next year LDraw.org will celebrate 10 (and I think LUGNET celebrates 10 this year, anyone know when?). -Tim (17 years ago, 5-Apr-08, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
