Inform
Posted Oct 10, 2002
This entry is called Inform ("beep") because it was written while I was downloading stuff about learning the language Inform. (that was the beep, it's done now.)
Here is where I found out you can download the Inform version of the HHGG INFOCOM computer game:

Day 1
Posted Oct 9, 2002
Day 1. This is my journal that I'm not going to keep up to date because I've never been able to do such a thing in a journal anyway. Isn't it sad that you print "Day 1" and the next entry says "Day 42" and then "Day 365" is the last entry? So this is the only time I'm doing that.
I'd better stop talking like Marvin, and get on with it.
I'm starting a club about interactive fiction in general, and Zork in particular. Check it out: A846867
Club Zork; "Where the G.U.E's Elite Meet"
I currently have a total of 1 member. Count 'em: One. That's me. I'm #1! Did that sound more like Marvin, or Zaphod?
Here is another sad Marvinish thing:
I started reading the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy at the same time I starting playing Zork I, sometime in the second half of 2001. I soon got some good news and some bad news. The good news was that INFOCOM had made a hitchhker computer game, which I spent months tracking down (it took months because, beng after all a hitchhiker, I wanted to get it for FREE) and the bad news was that Douglas Adams had died that same year, so I could never write him a letter he would never read saying how much I didn't like not liking his books while likeing them a lot actually, except for certain parts in the fourth one.
I guess that is what a Journal is for. Droning on and on about how sad everything is.
I'm having a really great day today, by the way.Nerd42

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
