Data lives forever; so does geekery!
A long, long time ago, on a server far, far away, I started my very first web site. It’s since moved through various places, and it’s funny that each step in the redirect process still exists. What’s even funnier is that not only do the redirects exist, but so too do my old geeky writings.
The implication of this discovery point to the staggering mountains of forgotten files all over the “super duper highway”. No cycle of life there… It’s like the McDonald’s French Fries in “Super Size Me” - No deteriration. Like Dorian Gray - living forever, without aging. I don’t know if it’s good or bad. This will be revealed, maybe, sometime in the far future, when and where archaelogy is also an occupation for ancient data diggers. I’ll be one with the weltgeist by then.
