Looks like they were around for a few years, directly following from Modding Mondays. Long ago, you see, the Daily Kerbal was, in fact, daily. Modding Mondays, Devnote Tuesdays, Video Wednesdays, Twitch Thursdays, and FanWork Fridays. The community was a bit busier back then, and the game was very publicly moving through development quick, but it still must have been a lot of work to have something to show off every day. As for what happened to them, my guess is showing off something new every week got a bit less feasible as things quieted down. There's still loads to show, but perhaps not loads of people who would get excited by it.

Also, thanks. Because of this post, I scrolled back through the kerbaldevteam tumblr and experienced a bit of a reminder of what it was like back then. That was a good nostalgia trip. Well, most of it, anyway...

Spoiler

The Barn may have not been executed well, but I do like the "October Sky" vibe for the Kerbals just starting out. I think I wish it had gotten a second pass rather than just being scrapped, but it might have been too incongruous with the parts we were using anyway.
