# bloke was fired over that
I mean, the bloke at the ad agency who set it up.

I felt a bit bad for him.

But apparently he was fired not so much for setting it up, but for setting it up and GOING ON HOLIDAY whilst it ran.

Lesson is: don't book a controversial project and then take a holiday so you're not there to answer questions from your bosses as to "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!"

# Yet because of it the world's a better place.
Life isn't fair.

I'll bet he has a better job now because of it. Karma!

# I'm the guy who 18 years ago
cannibalised his earlier project called "tsluts" to throw it all in with b3ta.

This was my first mistake.

# google probably doesn't show much unless you go into internet archive - and even then it won't show the right stuff
it was a blog and EMAIL CHAT GROUP.

and this email list (80 or so people chatting to each other) - including me and Joel was the basic bit of fire I used to start it going. There was a bunch of us - all keen on making fun(ish) web things.

B3ta has brought me much joy, and wasted much of my employers' money over the years!

# Hamtoucher.
But yeah I echo said sentiments from above - b3ta was here when my head was in a bad place - more than can be said for many others and its still here (again, more than can be said for many others) :-)
Keep her lit (as the cultchies over here say)

I like the fact that you don't have the lowest user ID on here, nor have been registered the longest (database shenanigans not withstanding).

I guess they all got jobs and grew up and that.

I'm on 17 years, 4 months and 14 days, so not far behind and still not grown up.
