The Word of Notch



The Word of Notch is Notch's Tumblr-powered personal blog but functions mainly as a development feed for Minecraft. It is linked on minecraft.net under Official Resources in the Community page. You can use The Word of Notch to view old Minecraft blog posts that go back until May 13, 2009, when Minecraft began development.

The Word of Notch contains information about possible future updates, as well as daily happenings at the Mojang office and behind-the-scenes posts about Minecraft's history and technical aspects. The Word of Notch also contains a direct feed from his Twitter account.

Although Notch is no longer the main developer of Minecraft, info about the game and other Mojang games are still included on the site (rarely). As of late most of Notch's posts are made up of his opinions and daily thoughts or focuses. As much of his readers are disinterested in these posts it has resulted in community interest for Notch's blog to decline quickly after his resignation as lead designer; Notch now only posts once every couple of weeks.
