James 'Kibo' Parry was an odd USENET celebrity from Boston, chiefly famous for turning up in any USENET discussion mentioning his name; he grepped his ISP's newsfeed. Most well-known USENET people are just loonies, but Kibo's actually quite clever and amusing. I'll confess to having read through most of his available post archives over the years...
Anyway, I just noticed that he hasn't posted to USENET at all this year; the last post seems to be Christmas 2007. What happened? Come back!
You know, USENET celebrities were far better than blogging celebrities. If someone would replace Arrington with Kibo, I would be eternally grateful.
Agree completely (he say's 2.5 years later after googling because he wondered what happened to Kibo).
