Okay, so I was reading an article the other day that was asking people if they really care about their actual start dates with specific technologies (e.g. Netflix) and I realized that I am someone who does care! Maybe it’s strange but I get satisfaction by knowing that I’ve had an account with a specific service for a long time. Anyway, I decided I would pull some dates and share them with you here on my blog!
Netflix:
Gmail:
I’ve had an ICQ number since 1997 but there’s no way to show that from a screen print (it’s 8 digits long).
Anyone have dates earlier than me?
Hrm… I’m not sure when I got my Gmail account but my oldest email is dated Tue, Apr 20, 2004 at 8:20 PM.
With Nexflix, I’m also not so sure. I’ve cancelled a couple times so it only lists my last start up date
I’m totally the same way. I like thinking about how long I’ve been with something.
Of course I’m a total dork, so my major one is the 2+ years of logged playtime on my main in Warcraft and my 3+ years with my current guild. :P
