Jason's Thoughts on Textfiles

Every time I feel like writing about my experiences with textfiles or the process of running this site, I put them here. I was a part of this whole thing too, and I want to share my stories with you. Also, running TEXTFILES.COM has brought out a lot of interesting events in itself, and you're going to hear about those as well.

Currently, I write a lot of my essays on my weblog, ASCII.TEXTFILES.COM.
