Been on various chatboxes and messengers. Some might still exist but I'm not really bothering to find out. There is a few other boards I'm frequenting, one is A Dutch one about movies in general the other about Formula 1 racing.
And once in a while I use facebook but I rarely post anything there usually check what others do. -

For me personally Ayrton Senna.
But I think you can make a case for Juan-Manuel Fangio, Jim Clark and as much as I disliked him during his career Michael Schumacher. From the current generation Fernando Alonso is the best. Pre formula 1 (before world war II) it was without doubt Tazio Nuvolari. -

No they wanted me to send money, first they would say there are interested in you, by the third private message it would be: I lost my passport, my money & no way to reach my family, could you send me money, I will pay you back once I get back in the USA.
It's just piss me off, that I would pay monthly to match.com for this type of crap, I'm not blaming Match.com for this, it's hard to keep track of every fraudulent profiles. -

I've been online since '97, didn't discover IMDb until 2004. There used to be a music sharing site called AudioGalaxy that had message boards that took up an awful lot of my time.

I had free internet access with dial-up back in the day for many years, all I had to do was to endured a ad banner in the corner of my screen
But that all change when the high broadband internet came along - I tried Match.com to meet girls, but that site ripped me off, a lot of girls were not actually real girlsJust mostly scam artists from other countries. -

I was late to join the internet. I didn't get on the internet until 2005. Then I discovered and joined IMDB in 2007. IMDB was the first site I really got hooked on and it still rivals facebook as my most frequented site. No other site I'm aware of has the combination of easy to use message boards in a wide variety of topics. That's why I still stick around.
