h boy, you really got me now! I am no match for your elite hacking skillz! The way you typed "Matthew Spong" into that search engine and then hit Enter. You didn't even click Search! And now here you have me, my personal website, all my filez, my old radio tapes, my scanned film posters, everything!
I think with perspective the essence of a personal website is embarrassment. If you aren't embarrassed by the content on your site you aren't doing it right. You should feel a deep cringe every time you think about someone you know accessing the site and seeing the ridiculous things you did or are doing or think deserve to be available online.
Here you will find links to several social networks I bother with, and some various ephemera from my digital youth, curiosities entertaining mainly for their quaint antiquity rather than their skill or artistic value. Also several books which may be of interest to scholars, and which I found amusement in scanning and converting into various formats. There are some juvenile attempts at creative writing which I provide more for self mortification from embarrassment, to prevent myself from ever attempting such things again. Possibly some instructional receipts, mostly very simple things which one can make or build entirely by oneself.
My life is very peaceful now. I live in the Australian countryside, grow apples and brew cider. In winter I huddle up near the slow combustion stove and scan vintage magazines to upload to the Internet Archive. In spring and autumn I explore the surrounding countryside to the extent I know it better than the locals who live here for generations. In summer I wait for autumn. Recently I've spent a lot of time growing eucalypts and other trees from seed and re-vegetating the mining sites scattered around the district.
