Once Upon a Long Time Ago
VeloceToday.com began publishing weekly online articles in January of 2002.
Having just compiled all of Alessandro Gerelli’s Coppa d’Oro delle Dolomiti reports which also began fourteen years ago (see below), we took pause to reflect just how long ago that was, particularly in terms of technology.
*Websites: In 2000 only about 30 million websites. Today there are 863 million.
*Internet users: 400 million Internet users in 2000; 3.2 billion today.
*Digital Cameras: In 2002, film cameras were still outselling digital cameras; in 2000, Nikon had just introduced the D1, with only 2.74 megapixels. Today we have 16 megapixel smartphones!
*Cellphones: Very few phones had Internet access.The iPhone was 5 years away yet.
*Google: No gmail, Google Maps or Analytics yet.
*Social Media: Did not exist!
Seems like centuries. But it also underlines the fact that VeloceToday.com is arguably the oldest Classic Car online magazine in existence. We think (as do our readers) that we are also the best, and we are still going strong. So stay with us, and help us continue by subscribing.

I want to again recognize the fantastic efforts put forth by our three intrepid correspondents, Alessandro Gerelli, Hugues Vanhoolandt and Jonathan Sharp. Without them, VeloceToday would simply not exist. I know from first hand experience what they go through to bring you excellent photo coverage of the events they attend. This week, we feature the Le Mans Classic with Vanhoolandt, and the Chateau Impney Hillclimb with Jonathan Sharp. Next week, Gerelli at the Coppa d’Oro. So please click, enjoy, and comment!
