found myself flicking through some old paper copies of ".net magazine" (around 2010ish). good lord, what a time capsule of early fun web stuff, with lots of the usual suspects of the time (very young looking versions of @brucelawson, @chrisdavidmills, @alastc, @tink, @colly, @lornajane, @malarkey, and many more). that was back when, for a while, I was on the "advisory panel" for the mag (and occasionally contributed to accessibility and html5 related topics) ...
@patrick_h_lauke I still have a couple of those in the loft (and Create Online, which gave me my first official commission). Looking back, I used to do an insane amount for net, what with ending up on the news beat. I’m glad I tuned down a request to start doing video because that probably would have ended me!</yikes>
ah and then you had things like this interview with Ryan Carson ... and then you remember how fantastically Carsonified imploded and how he turned out to be a right arse...
@FeralRobots everything just felt fresh and exciting...before it all got bogged down in frameworks, silos, big corpo wars, AI, and all that other bullshit we deal with today. #roseTintedGlasses
