Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

This all hits home. And for me, in the rural US at the time, the world got a lot bigger.
We went from expensive long-distance telephone calls and local BBSes to instant access to everyone and everything.
We went from 2-lane roads to affordable(ish) flights and direct highways.
Despite where we may be today, as an early adopter of everything, I'm happy to have had a front row seat to all that.
