About

What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

i first started using the net on a borrowed Mac a friend had in a closet. i bought a 14.4 modem for it and signed on through AOL.

the first killer app for me was email. and for a number of years i kept up with it really closely. for a while i sent out something i called 'the weekly top forward'.
