The BBC News website is 10 years old this week: There had been forays into web publishing by BBC News before that date, starting with a Budget website in March 1995 and culminating in a hastily coded Death-of-Diana site in August 1997.
But even though we can't pinpoint the exact minute - the start being more like a swimmer carefully inching into icy waters than an ocean liner proudly splashing in a spray of champagne - we know it was some time this week in 1997.
