Old Internet People by Martha Henson

In "Because Internet: Understanding the New Rules of Language", Gretchen McCulloch classifies those of us who were hacking clumsily around the net in the 1990s as "Old Internet People". Not sure how I feel about that title, but her description certainly rings true so fine, I'm owning it (http://blog.timmcghee.com/2019/11/internet-people.html).

Here I am, then, an ancient and wizened denizen of Internetland, propping up the bar at the dingy and dubious local pub, spinning stories* of the web old and new for anyone who'll buy me a drink*. It will be eclectic, and it will be sporadic.
