i've been using unix command line shells for literally decades on a daily basis. i still learn new tricks (or relearn forgotten tricks) pretty often.

i have memory of web "rings" and one option was to get sent to a random site in the ring. it was fun. kind of like sitting down with a random volume of the encyclopedia, opening to a random page and just reading.

i remember finding a web site dedicated to dart fletchings. i don't play darts but i was thrilled to see that any interest, no matter how niche, could be shared with anyone else interested.
