The Internet still feels like new technology to me. I got started on a Commodore VIC-20 with a 300bps modem calling local BBS's and paying by-the-minute fees to dial in to the big services like Quantum Link through a 1(800) number.

I haven't read the whole thread, but do I win? ;-)

Only if the commodore was steam-powered. And I'm not talking about the Valve app.

I remember those time…I spent hours at end in libraries to find a book on what I was researching. Finding a bout about the subject, that is, so not even actual researching.

Some time in mid-2000, I think. It's all a bit hazy. :p I got on the internet 'cause of fanfiction, in the beginning, and I inflicted my godawful creations (wangsty!fic, randomly!funny!humour-fic, blah blah blah) on the world for a while.

Then I regained my braincells, somehow, and stopped posting. No one wants yet another bad Harry Potter fanfic. Ever since, I've been drifting from forum to forum, talking up a storm. And, of course, drawing, whether it was comics or straight-up paintings.

No one wants any kind of fanfic, ever. Seriously.

Except for Hellraiser fanfic. Hellraiser fanfic rocks.

There's no way that can't rock.

Gasoline and styrofoam also works.

Speaking of explosives and the internet…
I heard (through a 'friend-of-a-friend') that the US military is going to stage a 'terrorist attack' on the internet and use it as an excuse to implement 'Internet 2', which you'll only be able to host on if you're acceptable to the coorporate world.
No I'm not paranoid… excuse me… must check what that strange noise was outside…

Naplam is actually a sticky jelly that keeps burning… not an explosive… But they do put it IN explosives! :)

But it hurts people :(

Speaking of explosives and the internet…
Aluminium foil in your hat will protect you. I swear it!!!!

Speaking of explosive, one of my monitors stinks like gunpowder or sparklers or something… Stupid old LCD… one of the lamps has started to die in it I think… Should I be worried?
