I notice the faint sounds of the ingress ports opening, on schedule, as they do every 10 minutes or so throughout the day. They hover just on the edge of hearing, but I am so attuned to this environment now that I note them especially. They mark the passage of my day.

One of the interesting things about UpsideClone is that, whereas the Clown (link to Matt's rather touching recent comment on it rather than the site itself) is organised along basically social lines - although the members may not all know each other well, they all know of each other and any given person knows at least one other Clown well.

Upsideclone is more of a creative writing outreach project for technoids; a loose alliance formed on the basis of technological enablement, and having come across either the site or a site connected to it. It receives a fascinatingly broad range of submissions, from the excellent to the unbelievably bad, with no connection beyond the Internet connection. And the latest one, the Message Centre, is interesting stuff.
