I was wondering what past beginning of the year OEN front pages looked like. So I checked out the wayback machine, which records random billions of random web pages. Have fun seeing how OEN has evolved from it's beginnings as my personal blog back in 2003, looking at early January screen shots from 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009 and 2011.
Lets go way back to the first new year after OEN was founded-- Jan 2004. Click on the image to go to the actual page where you can click on articles.
Here's the front page for the OEN page from ten years ago-- 2005. Click on the image to actually go to the page if you want to click on any of the articles.
In May 2005, we made a huge shift from using Front Page website software to using our own, custom-built Populum content management system. So, January 2006 was the first beginning of the year where we used it. Again, click on the image to see the actual page in the wayback machine, where you can click on the articles.
We jump three years to January 2009-- just before Obama was inaugurated, and with OEN having a look that broke down the front page into different categories of headlines-- but geez, still no images.

Last, we go back to Jan 1, 2011. Finally, we have lots of images on the front page. Click on the image to go to the page with working links. Fi
