Prodigy was my first ISP, and I never had an AOL handle until I needed one for AIM. I wish I could remember my Prodigy ID, but it's gone.

I was on Compuserve and ended up on aol because of gaming. I was fatoudust there because everybody on the internet was supposed to be geeky and get fractal math references. I had multiple accounts and kept a notebook with lists of online minutes, somewhat because of chat, but mostly text based rpgs. It's kinda funny to me in a way that we're back to metered data usage. We may look back on the years we're closing out now as the halcyon days of unlimited data.

When I went to NWMSU in 90-94, there was a while big deal about it being the first "electronic campus" so I started out with my student email, then I had Jan-May without email at my folks house (NBD -- I used a LAND LINE (gasp) to call people on their LAND LINES when I wanted to chat, and used my dad's Earthlink if I needed to surf) and then I started grad school in 95.

I have an aol name because of AIM - but that was the only part of aol I ever used. (I had my NIU email address - I've had it pretty much since grad school.)

The Buffistas were my first internet experience. I was such a late adopter that my first home computer was a ruby imac,and I used to print off pages of buffistas at work to read at home.

Hey, LeN, did you get that fancy stylus yet? eta: This looks interesting.

I was online first in university. I was "phoenix" there. My friend ktrigg told me to go with my name, and he's been ktrigg everywhere for twenty+ years, but if you can't be a phoenix at 18, you're not really living.

I should have been ita more places, and ita [lastname] a couple fewer. That's where most of my error (i.e. non-resume) appearances are.

I didn't have a choice in college, I was tskared, and I still use that some places because I can remember it and nobody else is gonna want it.

ita,

I have used it a bit, but not enough where I can really give a review. I like it, it gives me a lot of control, but there is a faint click click as I write.

So, my quick assessment is that I like it but I wish the click wasn't there.

Do you think it gives a better line than a traditional stylus or a weird one like in my post above? I am on a mission.

Would you draw with it? How does your handwriting look in comparison to a pen?

hmm.

the programs I use, you can control the thickness of the line, so I would say it provides more control. easier to see around it in comparison to other styli.
