I have decided to wind up my other site creative-i.info partly through cost but more importantly I was duplicating effort and InI was suffering as a result. However, all is not lost as I have successfully imported most of creative-i to InI. I spoke too soon! Some of the archives stored here have links to my now defunct site, so when you click on the link, you get redirected back here. Red faced, I’ll try and see if I can fix it. I’ve imported all the stories, so they are all here, somewhere…

I was about to say that this is well worth exploring especially if you use the Search function as it will take you to files that are not directly archived on my WordPress platform. And there are thousands of them, some going back to the 1990s.

About InI
InI
started life in 2003 its actual birth is some time earlier, around 1984 in fact, when I launched New York Online (NYOL), on a dial-up Bulletin Board System, or BBS. NYOL did pretty much what InI does and it ran until 1992 when I left New York for Africa. NYOL broke new ground in networking out independent news to the planet (in 1984 only the big corporates had access to leased lines).

At first, I used InI to publish my own essays but as with NYOL it grew into what is now an archive of getting on for four gigabytes of articles and links to articles, tens of thousands of them in fact.

Here’s a link to an archive by month of almost every article on the site from September 2004 to February 2010. There has to be something like 25,000 pages in total plus thousands of links by subject including extensive archives of Information Clearing House (almost from Day 1), VTJP Palestine Newslinks, Military Resistance, URUK Net, CounterCurrents, IPS and so forth.
