When was byte1ife started?
Believe it or not, it was started around 2006, granted under a different name. The Vets will remember it. It didn't hit the web as byte1ife until 2009 on blustrkr's laptop-turned-server, and didn't have the byte1ife.com address until roughly January of 2011. So with this complex history, we just keep it simple and go by the January of 2011 date.
