Internet #ScavengerHunt:
At some point in internet past (late 90s, early 00s) I posted pictures and details of my Windows #ActiveDesktop and custom theme. I posted it on some website and PC customisation forums but I can't remember which ones.

It was minimal white and included an editable txt widget, some sort of perf monitor, and a theme I think was called "milk". Trillian. WinAmp, maybe?

I'd have posted under Fyre or FyreFaerie, maybe squishmo or chicgeek. Can anyone find me a screenshot?

Oh look, 13 years ago I left my notes about why I think "we're not ready for [a technology]" is a pointless phrase! https://flameeyes.blog/2009/11/09/can-we-not-be-ready-for-a-technology/ #GoogleWave #ActiveDesktop (yes, really!)
Can we be not ready for a technology?

İsmail is definitely finding me some topics to write about lately… this time it was in relation to a tweet of mine ranting on about Wave’s futility, I think I should elaborate a bit about this topi…
