mikehudack: kevin: topherchris: Goddamn it. My eWorld account isn’t working today. You can access eWorld here: http://www.my-old-macintosh.de/. See you in the Community Center! I never had a chance to hang out on eWorld but I did hang out with Kate Bakes on TalkCity. That’s where all the eWorld kids went after Apple abandoned them. Just like they abandonded iPhone users. Oh man. I think my eWorld screen name was “SportsKate”. Typical. This is too much to handle for a Sunday night. That My Old Macintosh link is giving me that visceral sort of nostalgia that makes my body ache. I can still remember the way the lady’s “You’ve Got Mail” voice sounded. So melodious, so soothing. The exact opposite of AOL. Miss you, eWorld and PowerMac. Miss you every day. (Couple eWorld memorial links: the design and a minute by minute of the last minutes of the service.)
