I wasn't around when the "the 'net" was a new term, BBS` were rife, everything was new and exciting. You could find things you were looking for easily without coming across multitudes of pr0n (unless of course that was what you were looking for, and even then, that was hard to find), it was a group of people who collaborated together to form something good.
Oh how I wish I had been there. Now, as I learn more, and watch things change, it seems that I become more disillusioned day by day, watching the young 'l33t script kiddie hackers' take over, the corporations buy up all that is good so they can make another $1Million profit, and every search on google returning 3/4 spam before you can actually find anything remotely resembling what you were looking for.
I might be rambling, but it's very disturbing to think that when the time comes I might actually want and be able to contribute something good to this thing we call "The 'net", it would be pointless anyway because it would be another part of that huge thing I refer to as 'The Combine'.
So much for making a difference, huh ?
