Stepo Paradise

More than 15 years ago, I started my BBS “Stepo Paradise”.  Back then, it was still the dial-up modem world, and I got very excited to be able to connect to real people, albeit one at a time.  Eventually, the internet emerged and BBS quickly ran out of favor.

Then a few years ago, soon after I learned a great new stuff called Blog, I started writing my first one.  However, it is not easy to maintain an active blog, as some of you ex-bloggers must have experienced.  I was not an exception and I gave it up very soon.  I had actually made a second effort writing another blog, but again that was a failure.

After spending a few years in corporate, I found that I am gradually deteriorating into a bull-shit engineering manager, i.e. one who thinks he is technical savvy but in fact he isn’t.  It makes me feel bad as I am not using my full capability, and I am determined to get back to the front-line, to stay in-touch with the fast-evolving real world.  To show my determination, I want my venture to be documented, and there is no better tool than blog.  So here comes my third attempt…

I am determined, but only history will tell…

P.S. a YO!Net nodelist is available here.  It’s the only thing I can find on the net to prove the previous existence of Stepo Paradise.
