I don't have a basement
I just go to the office, turn on my computer, log in to GFY (i've been a lurker for 2years, just decided to join recently, seems like a great place to find easy troll
), and laugh my ass off over "old timers" who have no clue of what the internet is, much like the music industry, who believe that if they kill the tubes everything will be back like in 99, well wake up grandpa, those time are over, might be time for you and your friends to head to the retirement home.
As for accomplished nothing, maintaining one of the biggest site on the internet, may be by your book is nothing, but in mine (and the one of real big players - Facebook, Zynga, ring a bell to ya? Probably not, who am i kidding you probably just discovering geocities) that's pretty damn good.
The future of the internet belongs to us, either you go with the flow, or you watch from the sidewalk and grunt like a 90 year old "in ma time, that would not happen", well guess what, we're are not in your time.
