This is how I got here too, Small world.

Re: How did you get here?

Tormod made me do it!
He told me that if I didn't join he would play devil triads on his electric guitar with his amp set to 11 and lots of distortion. I thought it better to join.

What keeps me coming back are the interesting discussions that I can't have with my real-life friends.

Freeztar brings up a good point. Hypography is almost like another life. I'm free to be as geeky as I want since I'm not in my normal social clique here.
Good times.

I can't stop laughing!
I'm not laughing at the movies bit, but rather that it is a humorous account of how we "become".

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
