What was the first project ever shared to the Scratch website and where can I find a link to it?

This one? http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/104/

That's the earliest surviving project. The first 103 were deleted.

Why were the first 100 deleted?

I don't know. Maybe they were just for testing?

That means the first project by another person can be that 104th project. Not those 103.

Maybe those 103 projects were made from 2003-2007.

Just because the ID of the project is 104 doesn't mean it is the 104th project. The first user on Scratch's user ID is 139. Also, that was shared on the same day as when Scratch went into beta testing - March 5th, 2007. So, it is the first project on Scratch.

There could have been a prototype Scratch website that was converted into the beta site, with 103 deleted projects. So no, it is unlikely to be the first project ever uploaded.

It also makes no sense for 104 to be the number 1.
