If you've arrived here, you've likely seen the domain name as part of an e-mail address.
Fissure.org was originally registered in April 1999, and while it used to host websites, it now mainly serves
to host e-mail accounts.

What are the legacy links?
During late 1998 to about 2002, a loose community of (what the world now knows as) blogs formed. The sites, which numbered
in the hundreds at the peak, called themselves "e/n" sites, short for everything/nothing.
It was an accurate description - a swirling morass of teenagers and
young kids in their early twenties, discovering the wonders of the fledgling mainstream internet and a newfound
ability to broadcast anything they wanted to say to the online world. Consequently, the sites were filled with posts,
ramblings, rants, on every topic under the sun - "everything". But we were no one special - high school and university
students with "nothing" of real interest to say (apparently). Blogs were years away from being taken seriously by the
mainstream media, but in hindsight we were pioneers.
The e/n crowd has since matured, grown up, and grown older. The community has long since disbanded, but it retains
a place in my memories of the early days of the net.
Fissure.org used to host a variety of E/N sites, which have since faded away. These legacy links are the
scant remnants of the e/n sites that were once hosted on Fissure. -S.L.
