Minecraft wiki entry for The_Word_of_Notch, associated text: The Word of Notch was Notch's Tumblr-powered personal blog, which functioned as a development feed for Minecraft. The Word of Notch could be used to view old Minecraft blog posts that go all the way back to May 13, 2009, when Minecraft began development,[1] up to around the Adventure Update, when update content posts from Notch became less frequent. When the blog was no longer used for Minecraft development, it was removed from the Official links section on the Minecraft website.
