Howard Rheingold has been uploading scans of some wonderful sketches he made in his notebook from a HotWired (Wired Magazine’s original web presence) meeting that took place on May 18th, 1994. What an amazing piece of internet history.
On a related note, here’s Jeff Veen’s write-up on the history of HotWired interfaces.

That’s pretty cool. Do you know what he did the coloring with? Just different colored highlighters?
This is great — and actually, it isn’t all that much different from the kinds of documents people produce now when they’re trying to launch a new online publication. I especially like the part where he says “need to write a call to arms.” I wonder where the HotWired call to arms is now?
Howard Rheingold’s illustrations have spilled onto his shoes!
