Klownicle Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Many many moons ago, might have been while I was looking for tech news or for a windows longhorn beta. Who knows. What matters now is I'm here.

firey Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The computer was buzzing, chrome ready and waiting In hopes that a great website soon would be loaded; The parents were nestled all snug in their bed, While anger of my school marks danced in their heads; And dog in her 'kerchief, and I in my chair, Had just settled down for a long web surf, When out on the google search there arose such a clatter, I sprang from link to link to see what was found Away to the adress bar I flew like a flash, to take note of the location. The page so clean and crisp Gave the lustre of great things below, When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a giant N, and a bunch of text, With a little old nav bar, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be Neowin. More rapid than eagles the site it loaded, And it flickered, and flashed, and showed me the options; "Go to, Forums! Go to, News! Go To, Gallery and More! Great, News! Great Information! Great, Look and Speed! To the favorites bar! to the top of the my list! Now click away! click away! click away all!"....

Chicane-UK Veteran Posted December 3, 2011 Veteran Share Posted December 3, 2011 It's been so long I don't think I can even remember. I think it was down to problems with a bit of a CPU / Motherboard / Graphics Card issue and I either followed a link from another forum or found it on Google! Been here too long! :) Cripes - in fact just over 10 years. Scary.

max22 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I don't remember but I think people dislike me here because I do not connect Neowin to Facebook. Seems like almost everyone here does it. Not that I care. I just feel it makes a difference. Even if a little. From what I seen and tested.

Ragde Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Neowin was featured on Tech TV's The Screen Savers - went to have a look and it's been a bookmark ever since.

brink668 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 From Digg.com back in the day when it was just getting off the ground and no one knew about the "Digg" site. They linked a few stories and news articles and I liked the community. I actually never registered until 2.5 years later.

muzzle79 Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I used to troll around here Virtual-Hideout.net. At some point I found Neowin around the same time, probably through a forum post. http://web.archive.org/web/20030207220613/http://www.virtual-hideout.net Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/595450-how-did-you-find-neowin/page/33/#findComment-594507343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCA Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I honestly don't remember. When I joined I was known as "Lain" LOTS of speculation to if I was male or female.
