Ah. Am having a bout of nostalgia.
Just recovered my Lycos password for an old guestbook I used to have linked here – way before blogs had a proper comments system people used to use that as a primary mode of leaving notes! Imagine that..
Kind of missing the days where keeping a blog took some time and effort, when nothing was automated and putting an entry up took a lot of fiddling around with Windows Notepad and FTP! The days of webrings, and link exchanges, and I’ll-sign-your-guestbook-if you’ll-sign-mine! Hands up if you remember all that!
Reading through old posts/guestbook entries/comments is also making me feel a little old. I’ve been doing this for close to ten years now. Am completely out of touch with the people I used to interact with online on an almost daily basis. I wonder where they all went, if they’re still blogging, if they’re married with kids, if they remember the nonsense we used to get up to!
Also, just a little bit pleased to find that Friday Five still exists!
I’ve just done something completely random and emailed the bassist from a band that I once posted pictures of because his guestbook entry was just so funny. Incidentally they are an Australian band and I am curious if they are still together. I doubt I’ll get a reply, but who knows.
