Tribes
I'm getting obsessed with
tribe.net. It's like Friendster, but the servers aren't overloaded (yet?). Cooler still: you get to make (or join) "tribes" based on your interests. It's fun to make a new tribe — two hours later you have a whole little online peer group.
Or maybe it's just this working-from-a-hotel that's doing it. Not so much with the human contact since Monday. And it's not my usual quiet San Francisco work-at-home isolation. I can hear the Siggraph parties out the window at night, but I don't really feel like swiping Jason's badge and going. I'm sitting alone on the edge of lots of human activity. By choice, mind you, but still. It's an odd feeling.
