Cool. Interesting beginnings. When was Jalopnik started anways?

EDIT: 2008 Jalopnik for Garret Davis. I think it's pretty messed up though. Images missing and sidebar unreadable.

Damn. I didn't come onto the Jalop scene until maybe 2008. It still looked a whole lot different than it does now, though.

Damn right it did. Especially because one had to be approved by the editors before they could become part of the commentariat there was so much less nonsense in the comments.

Probably best to ask the Jalopnik staff themselves.

You had to get "invited" to comment, mostly by being witty and snarky in your comments, which no one but the editors ever saw until you were accepted as a regular commenter.
