When did MiniMins start?

[rubyberrie]

Is there anywhere on this site that gives a bit of history on MiniMins, i.e. when did it start, what does MiniMins stand for, who's idea was it etc. etc. or if not, does anyone know the answer to these questions?

I would be interested to know, as I think this site is fab and whoever thought of it deserves a pat on the back

MiniMins opened its doors on July 19th 2006
It was envisioned by Mini (a housewife)
She asked me (her son) to make it happen as im an IT student.
And made possible by the dedication of our members.

On Discovery Health forums, Mini had a nickname Mini Mins which was given to her by a user called Brightness.

Think we could do with making this a sticky (maybe on Newcomers page??) - as lots of new people must join and wonder - when?? how?? why??

It is nice to have some of the history etc about our wonderful site.
