What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.
i tried to sign up for an account on espn.com back in 1996 as sachin, but someone already took that. it suggested "sachinag" as an alternative. i decided to standardize all my online identities from there. like bill gates did with "billg". (please pardon the british punctuation.) the one i don't have is on AIM. i used to, but the family killed our account, and "sachinag" on AOL is no more.
