The Word of Notch



The Word of Notch is Notch's Tumblr-powered personal blog but functioned mainly as a development feed for Minecraft. It was previously linked on minecraft.net under Official Resources in the Community page. The Word of Notch can be used to view old Minecraft blog posts that go back all the way to May 13, 2009, when Minecraft began development, up to around the Adventure Update when update content posts from Notch became less frequent.

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 months.
