Not a joke — Christian Crumlish, the curator of Yahoo!’s pattern library and co-author of Designing Social Interfaces, has joined the illustrious Fictionaut Board of Advisors.
A pioneer of online literature, Christian co-founded Enterzone in 1994, one of the first purely Web-based literary magazines focusing on experimental electronic writing and art. Christian’s web site is Mediajunkie, and you can follow him on Twitter at @mediajunkie. We’re delighted to have him guiding and advising Fictionaut’s development. Welcome aboard!

Not just that, Gary — I just discovered we were in the same issue: http://ezone.org/ez/e7/stories.html

Thanks, Gary! Those were heady days. In many ways I feel that Fictionaut represents (at least on the writing side) what I dreamed of when we were handcoding Enterzone, with very little capacity for community features beyond traditional word-of-mouth and off-line networking.
