Ungeek.

Twenty years ago, I enjoyed participating in discussions and flame-wars on local computer bulletin board systems, or BBSes. Most of my non-computer-savvy family and friends didn't get it and thought I was being anti-social by spending a lot of time on the computer.

A few years later I got Internet access and transferred my participation to Usenet. The web had been invented, but it was only in use by a few physicists perhaps, and was far short of being 'world wide'. I was getting excited about the potential for the Internet, but the same people continued to not get it.

Fast forward, present day. What a reversal! The same people, they are now the ones who figuratively twisted my arm recently, to get me to join one of the major social networking web sites they are now all members of... !

The irony!

But, I'm just glad they get it now!
