A list of people and places on the web I have fond memories of, or used to visit a lot back when I had time.
Some of them have disappeared without a trace. Others I can't remember the name of. Some have just changed so much they're not the same site at all.

mp3.com circa 2002-2003. I'm still listening to the underground music I downloaded from there!
eyeball-design.com fxzone
sijun.com
skidviz.com (disappeared)

dozens of art "site rings" or whatever they were called. All dead now.


Got an intuos 5 a few weeks ago. Only had time to use it twice so far. By Damn I suck at everything. I'm gonna just swear of trying to do anything in color for the rest of the year. Being red-green color-blind is frustrating.

Shout out to ctrlpaint.com and enliighten.com for spectacular free tutorials.

so I'm flipping through the channels and kung fu panda is on...again
So i watch it...again. This is probably the 6th time.
So after the tortoise dies in an explosion of flower petals I say to myself
"it's official, Ugway is now undeniably cooler than....than.........than....

What the kcuf was his name... the old guy, star wars, short, old...
*$(&#!!!
What was his name?
I know I know his name!"

10 minutes pass

I feed the cats, answer the phone... intentionally avoiding googling dude's name because I know I KNOW his name....

Anyway, back to my main statement.
At this point it is official that Ugway is way cooler than... that guy who's space in my memory has been totally overwritten by my newfound reverence of Ugway.

... another five minutes pass ...
I go to google. Staring at google's text entry field for at least another 2 minutes. Envisioning the characters face in my mind as clear as day! Postponing the actual search for a name.
I start writing this post....
I get to the line where I say "I start writing this post" and it hit's me.
YODA!

Ugway would beat Yoda's ass!

I've got a number of people on my watch list who haven't been online in hundreds of weeks.

I wonder if any of them are dead :(

Ever wonder what will happen to all you crap on the internet when you die?

Do you keep a document containg all your account passwords and leave instructions about what to do with it in your Will?
