Goodbye, UserLand.

For several years, from about 1996 to 1999, Dave Winer and UserLand Software were a huge portion of my daily life. I was creating websites and scripting tools in Frontier, reading Davenet, Scripting News, the frontier users’ mailing lists. I’m pretty sure I dreamt in usertalk a few times, and I was well indoctrinated with the culture of outlining.
