Ted the Caver
This internet freakshow begins on Angelfire of all places. Back as the web was evolving, services like Angelfire and Geocities provided web space and hosting that enabled anyone to create their own websites. These days, the services have faded away to other, easier services. For most people, social media serves their needs to get their stories out to the public. If you’re interested in longer-form blogging, Wordpress sites are a good way to publish your story. But back in 2001, if you had a story to tell, you were likely opening an Angelfire or Geocities account, learning basic HTML, and publishing your story via FTP. And that is the internet world in which we find Ted the Caver. Published in December 2000 and up until May of 2001, the site is set up as a very primitive blog, updating users on the journey of a caver named Ted, along with his associate, known only as ‘B’.
