Online Friends

Spend enough time online, and you inevitably run into folks worth holding on to. Luckily, at least a few of them have websites, likely better than my mostly-functionalist one.

• Poptones∞. If the OpenForum search worked, you'd know that handle would be 'nuff said.

• Elle∞ is almost as much of an ArsMeet∞ whore as I. With a geek sensibility and passion for a cappella, how can you go wrong?

• Geon∞ and I sparred more than once in the SoapBox, but after that relatively brief phase he went on to study physics hardcore while I stagnated into pure math and philosophy. Or: yet another smarty-pants who left Ars for the blog scene.

• Wynk∞ and DiePilot are upstanding Texans of the first order. Bryan kicks ass on anything that requires, well, kicking ass, but how can you beat the math + music lover? Too bad Melissa was sick at the '03 gathering, but then again the fact that (1) she's cute (2) DP's big might have been a downer ;)

• LadyGodiva∞ is the best councilor the VelvetRoom has to offer, and that's saying a lot. I haven't gotten to know her very well, but living in Vienna + hooking up with underthumb (whose blog seems to have 404'd) has to be worth something.

• Tom Davidson.∞ Probably the male Hatracker I've interacted with the longest, save D. Michael Martindale.

• Joel.∞ I don't make a habit of linking to "popular" bloggers, even among the hacker scene (ERS, Dave Winer, etc.), but I have to credit Joel for introducing me to the entire concept. His interview questions kick ass, too.
