~ Introduction to my farewell ~
Hey this is in fieri, will change a lot.
Besides,
don't take it too seriously, it's supposed to
communicate some enthusiasm to readers :-)
Could you kindly describe us what "searching the
web" represents for you , Fravia+?
Incredible power! It's like re-mounting the niagara falls
upstream! Million of sites
are being added every hour, everything moves, changes happen with a
rapidity you
cannot even measure. Sites disappear, whole directories sink below
your horizont,
the very links you followed inside the river vanish... the white
wings of unforeseen links scatter your
concentration...
...And?
And you EMERGE! You continue to follow your thread, despite all
problems you have encountered
the query is still alive! YOU FEEL the correct direction, your
quarry went thattaway, you KNOW it!
So you carry on, and you go upwards, upstream, your seeker's
instinct thumping dull but loud
in your ears. You jump over all web-cliffs, oblivious to the
amazing speed of changing connections and paths. And you FIND what
you were looking
for, and you grasp it, cutting through millions of useless pudding
sites, clear,
bright seeker's swords glistening in your hands. And you will slay
and crush all
commercial beasts
should they dare to confront or provoke you, obstinate seeker, irreverent reverser,
son of the light of
knowledge.
Are you not being a little too lyrical about this
stuff?
Yep, but searching is great fun isn't it?
a lot to add... soon or later
