I had a website and email address there for many years until Yahoo came along and bought them out. I remember the days of Geocities well.

I remember the original Orange mobiles (had one of the first on contract). Often remark on how amazing the iPhone is to friends/family... and compare the storage of it (16GB) to my first PC, an Amstrad with twin 5.25" floppy drives (later to have one upgraded to a 3.5" DD! - how geek am I!). Actually my uncle bought me a second-hand 20MB HD which slotted into the back - must've been the size of 8 iPhones! I love the way technology is moving forward. I marvel at the wonderful apps people are dreaming up and releasing on the iPhone. But I worry at the throw-away nature of our society and all the must-have technology and the impact it is inevitably having on the environment and people. Look forward to hearing more of your thoughts! Totally agree with you. I remember the original Orange mobiles (had one of the first on contract).
