notlimah.com
These days, everyone is carving out their own little piece of the Internet. So, it didn’t really surprise me when I was alerted to notlimah.com. I do give its creators points for creativity. Notlimah is Hamilton spelled backwards.
The beauty of the Internet being anonymity, the site is run by a group of individuals known only as Yvonne, Rebecca and Keith, according to the site’s “About us” page.
When first visiting the page, a flash intro welcomes visitors with greeting “Welcome to notlimah.com. The premiere place on the net about Hamilton. All stories are from people like you about our fair city to bring power to the people. Please stand by…”
I imagine we’re standing by because only a few of the site’s promised amenities are operational, such as the writings of someone dubbed the Poison Pen. The Poison Pen and I have even brushed up against similar subject matter. Though, his spelling, particularly of city officials’ names, could use a little work.
The site is pretty bare at the moment, but should provide a local forum when (or if) it really gets going. Especially, because it offers residents a voice without a face. As the character of Banky notes in the movie Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, “That’s what the Internet is for: slandering others anonymously. “
It’ll be interesting to see where this goes.
