When I was in college, each senior got a page in the yearbook that they could do whatever they wanted with. For the most part the pages consisted of pictures of the senior and their friends, as well as silly quotes from their friends and thank-you's to everyone they had every met. They were all very similar, and completely uninteresting.
But my junior year, a friend of mine who was a senior created an interesting page. It was almost completely blank, except for the poem "The Road Goes Ever On and On" by Bilbo Baggins (from The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien). I thought it was a beautiful comment on the journey into the world that he was about to embark on. It was one of the few good pages in the yearbook.
The WWW is a lot like that yearbook. A lot of people are putting home pages up that are very similar, and completely uninteresting. Most of them are a waste of disk space. I decided that I wasn't going to make a home page if I didn't have anything to say. And I don't have anything to say.
