I am doing some research on the NEW MEDIA. There used to be a thread on here that had some history about how Free Republic started. But I can't for the life of me find it in the archives.
If any of you have links or knowledge on the subject I would surely appreciate if you would post them in this thread.
I have several friends and customers (I FReep in my place of business) who want more info on this site. Further, I also have been asked to give a talk to a local community group about the New Media so I need to get on the ball, and get it all ready in time for the talk.
Thank you all in advance!

Aw gee, Mad, I didn't mean to direct that to you.... but to the newbies that happen to catch your thread.
Your $5 is very well appreciated! If only other the faithful chipped in $5/mo. FR would be flying even higher!

Was the link in #17 what you were looking for?

If you are serious go back to the White Water postings on Prodigy, they must be archived somewhere.

"Was the link in #17 what you were looking for?" Yep that was it, in fact in one of the later fundraiser threads this item was reposted. I posted in that thread, that is why I knew it existed somewhere. I just didn't have any idea of what the title was. I used several variations on the History of Free Republic and only got Laz's parody which is priceless in itself.

First of all, you have to totally enjoy the day that a dawg would enjoy with all four feet up in the air with the air conditioner on the privates.

Make sure you include a diorama for extra credit. I was just about to ask if he wanted us to have a FReepathon to collect egg cartons and toilet-paper rolls. Yer reading my mind.
