While I mostly lurk (and throw awesome parties) Dtoid has been my main source for news since probably about 6 months before I actually joined here. Dtoid stories were getting posted to digg on a regular basis, and I kept showing up and loving the articles that this strange site kept putting out. Over the years its become more and more of a legit JOURNALISM site while still keeping the original types of hilarious articles that brought me here in the first place.
This past year
Senisan82 formed up Dtoid New England which led to our Funspot trip and the first meeting of other Dtoid peeps. I also hosted my first NARP at my house. In a week I'll be headed to my first PAX, which if what everyone tells me is true should be completely EPIC. Thanks Dtoid, for letting me into an awesome community with a sweet news site attached to it.
