About Inascifi
Posted by thefraix on March 29, 2009In the beginning,
there was ina_sci-fi.
Like many small electronic groups that formed in the virtual world, the community grew and shrank, and almost collapsed.
Then, the founder came up with the idea to shorten the name, to Inascifi.
The idea was to reduced the task of typing underscores ( _ ) and dashes ( – ) signs each time he sent an email to the group, and it worked.
The suddenly! Without warning, the founder’s father found himself being billed a good amount of American Dollars on his credit card. The founder bought the domain, inascifi.com .
It was a blessing in disguised. The Yahoo! provider allowed inascifi.com become a small business website, with many tools and emails and bandwidth space. But the main issue was not with the tools.
It was the tool user. He need time and concentration a large amount of fun in developing the website and community. Added with the burden as a research executive in a marketing research company, reduced his free time and creativity.
The science fiction community’s future was threaten.
