Editor reunion
Most interesting. Today I stumbled across two old aquaintances: Henrik Torstensson and Tommy K Johansson, who wrote a comment on Mymarkup.net and Jogin.com, respectively.
Here’s the interesting part: they have both been my chief editors at one time. How big are the odds of me finding them both on the net on the same day?
Tommy used to run a Swedish site called “PC Online Magazine” (domain since stolen by squatters) with various news items about computer related stuff. I wrote a bunch of blurbs and a few articles.
I first got into contact with Henrik via Fidonet (long since dead, though the rigor mortis has yet to set in), where he asked me if I wanted to write for a small newsletter called Spelnytt (approx. “Game News”), which I did. And later, Henrik became the chief editor for Missil, a Swedish game magazine (which I reviewed games for) that began as an online magazine and eventually existed in paper form as well. Also dead and buried, as far as I know.
By tomorrow I’m expecting to stumble across two or three editors from Codex.
I’ll drop Tommy and Henrik a mail later in the week and say that I’m still alive.
