Some products have become such fixtures in our lives that we could hardly imagine a time before they exist—but at some point in the past, they must have been introduced to the world for the first time.
A blog named “Since*” has been set up for the sole purpose for documenting the origins of products that have become very well-known since their debuts—it also features famous personalities and even fictional characters, such as The Pink Panther.
On this blog, readers would be able to find out how things like the Post-It sticky note, the Macintosh I, the Michelin Guide, Scrabble and Playboy magazine came about—the aim of the blog’s creators “is not to keep to particular disciplines, trends or tendencies, but to show elements that are attractive and full of value”.
