The original plan for DDJ was it was to run a total of 3 issues to discuss
Tiny BASIC. People liked the magazine and so they decided to continue
publishing it.
Last Thursday I got bound volumes 1-9 (minus 7) of DDJ. It is a lot of
fun reading these. Recrecational computing was an adventure back then.

The very first issue actually reads "Dr. Dobbs Journal of
Tiny Basic Calisthenics and Orthodontia." The first couple
years of issues heavily concentrate on Tiny Basic. After that
they were a heavy promoter of Tiny C.
