So, if you missed it, seeing as I didn’t announce it or anything, I am now the Textfiles.com intern. Right now if you go to ascii.textfiles.com there is a big picture of me. Right now I’m cataloguing old computer magazines, which is actually more fun than it sounds. There’s no time to read through them all, of course, but like with any archive, it’s filled with snapshots of things old and ancient, things that I remember being new at the time, and things that are well before my time. The advertising is also pretty awesome, including at least one which featured the most mid-to-late 90’s “hey, hackers are cool, right?” picture ever.

I will be sure to make note if I happen to uncover any particularly excellent artefacts. One never knows, and this collection I am sifting through is huge.

(Unrelated: the post I wrote called “Oh, Hello” was not, apparently, tagged with the tag “oh hello.” I have failed you all.)
