*cricketbox* boldly threw open its doors in late 2001/early 2002.  Since then we’ve engaged in a mercurial race to the bottom.  Initially with a staff consisting of five friends from CO, it has degenerated into what you find today; a mere shell of itself, a ghost haunting long abandoned intertubes.

The only one left from the initial crew is Mike, who dilligently mans the helm and foots the bill for this nonsense.

The important people: Josh, Steve, Jason and Melissa have all moved on to bigger, more worthy pursuits.

Think of us (me really, but fuck it, if you can’t use the royal We on the Web, where the hell can you?) as boing-boing without the posts, talent, readership or relevance.
