So if you had told me that you could get my Internet access back, I'd have been thrilled, would have hugged you, may have even promised you my firstborn. Secondborn too if I were feeling generous.
But now, after spending literally all day poking and prodding at the edges of cyberspace, instead of utterly delighted I'm more confused than anything.
Instead of the ship-lost-in-the-Pacific vastness that you usually get wading through millions of pages of Google search returns, there's a visible horizon. Trying to surf off that edge doesn't lead to infinite blackness, or to a place where Here There Be Monsters, but just a wall. An edge.
Is it just me? I mean, safe to assume that a lot of damage is still yet to be repaired. And maybe it's a regional thing, maybe I'm going through the wrong hubs to get the wrong info. I don't know. As I've said before, not an IT guy.
The things you'd go after first, they're the ones that are hardest to come across too. No, not porn. That's still there aplenty (not that, ah, I would know...ahem). But national and international news is sparse at best. Mostly just rehashes of what the President has said or done. Internationally there's next to nothing.
Lots of speculation, little hard fact. Guess I shouldn't be surprised, really.
Still hunting to see what is and isn't available, but there's definitely significantly more available for perusal.
Which is fortunate, because with the curfew I'll be around my computer a lot earlier a lot more often.
