    God, so many people’s opinions to scroll down past before I get to post mine. But that is one of the greatest reasons to visit this site. All the cool people who post their opinions so I can read them all and crack up. I pretty much read everything, even the stuff I don’t agree with, just to get another point of view. I am a trekkie. Was raised on repeats of the original show (so I never really stood a chance!), then graduated onto the spin-offs. Still watch them all now. It’s my one true vice.
    Apart from chocolate ;D
    Have a good week all, and Wil…YOU ROCK!!

    What a great article! Congratulation, Wil, you deserve it! I have visited your site since you started it and I think it’s great. What other actors/actresses do you know who would do this for their fans?!? I have always thought that you are a great actor, but from reading your website, you also come across as a really nice, intelligent person. Keep up the good work!
    Love from Anne, Liverpool, U.K.

    I love it when trolls sign their posts “wil” but then are dumb enough to use their own email address.

    “The term “television” was first coined in the year 1900 by the Russian physicist Constantin Perskyi who was delivering a speech about cockfighting and accidentally slurred his words together to form this new, exciting, proactive word. His noble and ingenious speech caused various other scientists to start looking at potassium cells (which are now found in Flintstones vitamins) and triodes (the things that the cast of “Star Trek” used to shoot at space nerd Wil Wheaton and then claim that there was an enemy Chewbacca behind him which they said vanished after he turned around and didn’t see anything).”
    Gotta love Lowtax. 😉

    That’s a great article, Wil. I admit, I am one of those people who came to your site to giggle at you. But you’re so darn funny and so much fun that now I read your blog every day. I also have you linked from my site. Congrats!

    Actually .net was originally intended to be for network services, like backbone providers.

    Actually, when I found WWDN it was because I was looking for info on Wesley, not Wil. I missed his final episode on TNG ’cause I had way too much homework that year. Now, when I missed an episode of Roswell, I was able to go online within the week and find a page where the whole thing had been typed out word for word. But years after this episode aired I can not find a similar page devoted to ST. Where is James Blish when you need him? I’m not too disappointed, ’cause I did find this really awesome site. But I still don’t know exactly what happened to Wesley.

    Coolio article Wil. The Gazette is an awesome paper.
    Too bad the Winnipeg Free Press couldn’t get a hold of you. Lol, lol.

    *LOL* I can’t get enough of the dancing squirrel. As always, I am glad I stopped by the site because it never ceases to amaze me. Keep up the great work, Mr. Wheaton!!

    Wil,
    Congrats on the article. And I really am glad you were able to bounce back from trekkie hell, and that you set up this awesome site. Good luck in the future, and I look forward to your triumphant return to trekkie land in ST:X
    And good luck on all those repairs to the house as well. My parents are doing the same thing to our house, except Im not there, so whenever I go back its like I am in a new house…kinda freaks me out in a way. Oh well…such is the life of a college student.

Hence why i read ya so often. That and I had a crush on you waaaaaaaay back in the day, and ya share my bday… k, getting dorky here…
    So, um, keep up the good work! Not like you need the encouragement, you just.. do! {Why can I sense a strange Nike commercial coming from this?}

    Ok, 265,636 sounds more realistic than 800,000. Still a lot more than I would have imagined. Congratulations. Still don’t understand that high bandwidth, but I haven’t looked at your photo gallery–I guess that’s where it is coming from.

    HEY! In reading that article I realize that we, the loyal viewing public, have been robbed!! We got our “Child Star” phase. We got our “Former Child Star Struggling to Find Work” phase and we got our “Finally Well-Adjusted Adult” phase.
    Where was the “Substance Abusing, Car Crashing, and Video Store Robbing phase, sir? We have been cheated and bamboozled I tell you and I for one will not stand for it!

    From one geek to another:
    According to RFC 1591 http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/rfc/rfc1591.html
    The domain .NET “is intended to hold only the computers of network providers, that is the NIC and NOC computers, the administrative computers, and the network node computers.” That is, it is for Internet Service Providers and the like.
    So it’s not for communities like you were quoted as saying in the article. Sorry.

    “Cool, Wil – the Gazette is a respected paper.”
    Hahahahahahahahaha. I teach journalism at Concordia U. here in Montreal and you can’t find more than three pages of decent original reporting in the Gazette on any given weekday. Well, maybe if you include sports….
