What? September Member of the Month, you say? Yes, it’s true… I’m running a tad behind. But better late than never, so without further ado, join me in congratulating our September Member of the Month, neo_ny_23!
Neo has been a member at BigBlueBall since April 2004, and has over 600 posts to his credit. I caught up with him and learned what makes him tick…
How did you find BigBlueBall? What keeps you coming back?My laptop was hacked when I was in my freshman year and I had no idea what had happened to my laptop. I googled around and finally, BigBlueBall gave me all the information I needed. Especially the people here are really more friendlier than any other forums I visited.I learnt a lot from BigBlueBall, especially related to computer and internet security. Now, I have a job related to anti-hacking, and I have extensive knowledge regarding computer and network security and anti-hacking. And this was all because due to BigBlueBall, which stimulated me to think and do my own research while helping others with their problems.
Moreover, whenever I am stressed out, or bored, BBB is the website I visit. There is so much to learn, discuss, and laugh about, except being just a forum. Its more of like a cyber family.
How did you come up with the username neo_ny_23?
I am a big fan of Matrix movie series and hence the character, Neo. I live in New York and hence the “ny”. And my birthday is 23rd August. and hence the number, 23.How long have you been using computers?
I came across computers in high school as early as in grade 2. I got my first desktop in grade 11 but spent all my time in playing games, rather than really exploring any technical areas of computer. I started exploring all the technical and detailed area and started serious programming from my freshman year, 2003.How about instant messaging? When did you get started?
Long time back. Probably when I was in grade 11, thats like 6 years ago.What’s your preferred instant messenger? Why?
Yahoo for family and friends in India. AIM for class-mates and school-mates.What’s your favorite section of BigBlueBall, and why?
Earlier it was Yahoo section and General Computer Help section. But with all the course work and 30 hours of job, I just limit myself to “Off topics” and “What Makes You Laugh” sections.What do you do when you’re not online?
Usually, I will be either working at my job, or be in my class. If not studying or at job, I would be working out or listening to music.Anything else you’d like to add?
It’s been over a year at BBB community and I want to thank every one here to make BBB so great. Thanks every one 😉 . BBB rocks!We’re glad you’re a part of BigBlueBall! Congratulations, neo_ny_23!
