As a citizen, I keep this website changelog to record updates made to the site over time. It provides a clear record of changes, such as new pages, revised information, design updates, and fixes to site features. Each entry helps visitors understand what has changed and when the update was made. The changelog also supports openness by showing how the website develops and how its information is maintained.
V1
When I first created my website, it looked like a simple general-purpose personal page. It did not have a clear theme or a detailed design yet. At the top, the largest heading read "My Website V1," which showed that this was the first version of the site. Under that heading, the page included the greeting "Hello, my World!" This gave the page a basic welcome message and made it feel like a small introduction to the person behind it.
Near the bottom, there was a single letter, "g," with no extra explanation. The page also included an image labeled "Hosted by neocities." This image showed that the site was hosted on Neocities, a service often used for making personal websites. Below that, a section titled "Things I Like" presented a list of personal interests. After the list, the page ended with the text "Visit Neocities," which pointed visitors back to the hosting site. The background was bright cyan, giving the whole page a bold and simple appearance. Overall, the design looked like an early personal website, with large text, a short greeting, one small list, a hosting image, and very few extra details.
