Welcome
to HoleCity!
We're
an on-line community devoted to cornering
smart-assedness on the Web.
Some
of North America's funniest writers, designers and
programmers saw a gaping void in cultural
commentary. However, they all had real jobs and
lives and such, so we stole their idea.
Let's
face it: not everyone gets jazzed reading unironic,
publicity-minded Net poop. Independent Web voices
are sometimes hard to find; funny Web voices can be
even harder. The Net used to be brief and biting,
now it's often vague and corporate. How convenient:
Here we are to fill the void.
It's
been a long, dusty road to the middle for
TVHole. In May of '97, we were begging Net
surfers to stop by and read our insightful
television criticism, if only to artificially
inflate our hit count. Today, we're begging you,
the savvy Net expert, to stop by and read our
insightful television criticism, if only to
artificially inflate our hit count.
In
September of '97, it was time for
SportsHole, and Frank Gifford, Jerry
Reinsdorf and Dennis Rodman will never be the same.
At SportsHole, we promise to go the extra mile for
the team, and give it 110%. Oh, and surveys. We got
surveys.
Then
in early '98, we realized that we wanted real
lives, a goal inconsistent with being funny every
darn day. So HoleCity was born, and we went weekly.
We've got a theme each week, but as often as not
ignore it. We've added the FiveHole, MovieHole,
AdHole, and all sorts of other Holes. And we've
started our syndication program in alternative
weeklies around the country.
And
there's more to come. In
the coming months, we'll be premiering a new
dynamic site with all sorts of bells and whistles.
So keep coming back. Eventually everybody
laughs.
