Halley also wrote the famous Internet essay that begins with this stunning sentence. “When my dad wakes up today, the first thing he will notice is that he is dead.” What a great piece. It is art. We have our debates and beat our chests a lot in InternetLand, but this is why I love to make writing tools, to enable writers like Halley to tell stories like this one. I’ve never met her, and she uses Blogger, not my software, but I’m still proud to be part an Internet that hosts such great writing. [Scripting News]
