Ygdrasil, the Internet's first and oldest literary journal lives on

[SugarBug]

Ygdrasil, the Internet's first and oldest literary journal is still in operation. Below find three links, [1] to the older archive and [2] to the recent editions and [3] to the old web page.

"Ygdrasil, A Journal of the Poetic Arts is the first Literary Journal to be published on the Internet (1994)."

The oldest archives are here:

Newer issues from about 2017 to date are here:

This is great! I'd never heard of the journal, and see there's a wealth
of content dating back to 1993 and much of it published in plain text.
This should keep me busy for many months (and reading poetry is a far
better pasttime than reading the news these days, so much obliged!).

Unfortunately Yggdrasil Linux, afaik the first distro available on a CD,
is dead and gone.

Sorry to hear about that.
