Before DvG, there was Duckduckduckgoose.com, a cool site which was way too difficult to type in.  It featured a revolutionary four side-by-side blogs.  It was pompously heralded to be the end-all be-all to all blog websites for weeks before its launch, and took less time than that to crash and burn.

About the authors:

Lauren (or Kitsune, wtfever)
Lauren has been an internet fixture for many years.  She began her blogging career in the year 2000 to express her grief after the cancellation of the television show Party of Five.  After gaining a cult following and a number of stalkers, she fled to Japan where she fell in love with the confusing and oftimes offensive ways of the Japanese people.  Today she lives somewhere else with a cat i think, i’m not sure, and bravely battles acute narcolepsy.  She is also a steadfast patriot and a dedicated pyromaniac, which gives her conflicted feelings about flag burning.

Joe (or Apok,  i guess)

Joe was born 60 feet below the earth’s crust in an underground cavern to a couple of Evil Doctor Scientists. They raised him under the teachings of the Illuminati, and he grew up in a montage of cliché science experiments involving smoke coming out of beakers. His tenacious attitude and impish charm garnered him the respect of all his imaginary peers, in particular a pair of talking twin leg bones from a broken skeleton (lab standard) named Tibby and Fibby. He now lives an unassuming life in a town over there where people pay him to jab a needle into them repeatedly. Or he does it for free. Against their will. So, watch, um…watch out. For him.
