Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

I am honored that fate has allowed me to be the first to congratulate you!
Natalie tickled my memory and I discovered a bit of date synchronicity. According to the registrar, my own islandone.org
domain was:
Created On:01-Nov-1994 05:00:00 UTC
So http://www.islandone.org is starting it’s 10th year on the internet.
God how time flies!
Happy Birthday to Samizdata and may there be many more of them!
A very happy birthday to a truly inspirational and brilliant blog. Please keep up the good work – undoubtedly many of the pieces here have influenced my own thinking and continue to help spread libertarian ideas around the world and promote the libertarian meta-context, as Perry would call it.
Congrats, and thanks for running a fun blog.
I’ll put a few .45 slugs through a UN symbol in honor of your birthday this afternoon at the range.
Outstanding. Congratulations !
Congratulations on sustaining such a challenging, stimulating blog, packed with scintillating talent. More power to you. Oh, er, that last bit doesn’t sound very libertarian, does it?
David’s a right-winger?
Happy Birthday Samizdata! Oh and Dale,
So http://www.islandone.org is starting it’s 10th year on the internet.
Sheesh, you must have been there when they turned the Internet on 😉
Ten years is nothing. Depends how you define “internet” but it goes back at least to the early 1980s, and you can argue fairly convincingly that it was turned on in the late 1960s. (I’m a Johnny come lately myself, and have only been using it for just over 15 years).
Somewhere in a bunch of packed files I have a short piece of teletype paper with the full listing of all the machines on the arpanet… in 1973.
There were about 20.
nice
