I apologize. Do they have those books here. For teaching people about the Internet. It's different here, and I didn't use it much at home.

Also. Hello.

[ enclosed: a link to what is more or less a wikihow article about how to use an internet browser ]

i read many articles and observed how others posted before i made a post by myself

but if you are feeling impatient that may not be helpful

[nojohnyouare]

I didn't realize I was posting. Entry buttons look the same.

But thank you.

Different from what it was at home.

[aumygoddess]

they do yes
i have not ever used a keyboard before arriving here so i understand your frustration

[ she spent about an hour typing up her post key-by-key ]

your computers were different as well?

[nojohnyouare]

Wireless connectivity is new. And not feasible. Here it is. And here... Everything is collected on big sites, I think. Instead of spread out.

But I didn't use it much. We didn't have Internet at home.

[aumygoddess]

much was the same for me
i had only seen computers in offices and such
it is strange to see everyone carrying around very small ones

[tigerpoet]

The library has a number of books on the subject, and the staff would be happy to help you through the basics if you're still confused, I'm sure.

Did you ever get anything to eat?

[nojohnyouare]

Not yet. Difficult. Did you have trouble when you were new.

[tigerpoet]

Some. But I'd already been summoned to the future once, so I went through my 'adjusting to the Internet' phase elsewhere.

[nojohnyouare]

So this is what Internet is like in the future. Not just in space.

[ it’s kind of sweet. ]

I feel like I’m reading a poem. “Beef” is a little out of place, but maybe that’s what makes it artistic.

[nojohnyouare]

Artistic? But it was accidental.

[machiavel]

I don’t have much of an eye for art, but I think someone might argue that there’s plenty of culture to be found in accidents.

[nojohnyouare]

Maybe. Like potato chips. Or is that an urban legend.

It is pretty confusing, right? I've worked some stuff out about it by now (obviously) but there's still so much to learn. Maybe we can figure it out together!

[nojohnyouare]

Someone said this was what Internet is like in the future. We didn't have it at my house yet. But it's different from what I used at school.

[greatestcool]

The future is so crazy. I mean, I guess this is a different future from whatever my world will be like, but you know what I mean.

What year are you from, by the way?

[nojohnyouare]

1999. Uncommon? When are most people from?

[amant]

I've seen worse search histories...

I don't spend a great deal of time on these, either. They're only good to arrange friendly get-togethers, I find.

[ Everyone else has been so helpful. There needed to be at least one idiot; a role France has diligently volunteered for. Welcome. ]

[nojohnyouare]

Parties. Common, then?

[amant]

Dinner parties, yes. I love to entertain people. What about yourself? Have you met any interesting people here yet?

[nojohnyouare]

Interesting? Probably most people. But I don't know much. A dead person and someone who likes purple.

[wearingguess]

Beef?

[nojohnyouare]

Hungry.

[wearingguess]

I see! And were you able to find it?
Or rather
Are you still hungry?

[nojohnyouare]

Not yet. Yes. A big city.
