Medieval scholars were among the very first to use the internet, and to use it on a large scale by the mid 1990s. I posted regularly on the (still going) Mediev-l listserv first in 1993. There was a real community.
The Internet Medieval Sourcebook is 30 year old today. with an inception date of 26th January 1996.
It turns out that although not in any sense breaking new scholarship, it remains my most longstanding contribution to the republic of letters.
