1995-1999
The first years I had Internet, most of them spent on being hooked to Usenet. I miss that, the communication that was public yet not. It was a brief time of happy even though I did end up drifting away before most other people. All because of the same plague that almost always occur: even if I love people dearly, there’s still that nagging feeling of never truly belong.
Those that did stay a while after me soon also left as Usenet more or less broke down, quite a few ended up on livejournal but that never was a good fit for me. Never. It’s probably great for those that have many friends and are not afraid to ask to be included. I’ve never been good at asking that — what if they say no? Can you tell I’m terrible at adding people on facebook too?
2000 marked the beginning of blogging at the Lost Pages, then The Lost Pages of Vindication of Eternity. I fitted in. Then I grew restless, I’m stupid that way. I really hope I don’t do that with tumblr.
