On February 28, 2013, I’ve uploaded a video of my third panel to Katsucon entitled The Imageboard World 2 – The Chanverse. A few weeks after the video was uploaded on YouTube the first comments came. Most of them came from reddit from r/4chan and r/cringe. Many of the comments were overwhelming focused on the presentation and the autism of the speaker and not on the actual content of the panel.
After a few weeks I've finally managed to upload the entire video of the presentation onto YouTube. The entire panel, uncensored and uncut. This is the first time I've recorded my own panels at any anime convention and I wanted to do it since my second panel at Katsucon. Anyway the video can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qX9ecYuHMKI
For third time in a row in Katsucon, I’m personally pleased to announce that we are back with the third panel that Yotsuba Society has held in an anime convention. The panel will be a lot detailed (and enjoyable) than the previous panel. Not only will we update you with what happened after the last panel, we will give you more expanded information on not only 4chan, but the English chanverse, and the international chanverse, especially the large and unknown Russian chanverse of 2ch.hk as well.
Shortly after the creation of the Yotsuba Society Websites in 2011 I applied to do a panel for Katsucon 17. The panel was called “The Imageboard World”. It was held by me, my co-founder Xantar, Charizard, and another person called Nostalgia. I was a basic panel about imageboards, a few pictures here and then of the front pages of the *chans, and one stage about “Stages of a Channer” from one of my articles. A few people attended, and for some reason Katsucon liked my panel.
4chan and by extent, the chanverse has been loathing the link-sharing social media site Reddit since 2011. Most of the loathing comes from Reddit picking up memes that 4chan decided to end and keep spreading them out across the internet. This limitation isn’t related to memes or catch phrases, but also other 4chan boards such /v/ and /a/ as those two boards also loathe reddit for their own community or culture related reasons.
4chan /g/ - tuesday is backup day Anonymous 01/22/13(Tue)11:11 No.30914910
For anyone who owns a computer, even a netbook, it’s a no brainer to do regular backups. Even a simple online backup solution for small files such as dropbox is much better than simply putting your trust in one day. All technology is fragile, and can break at anytime. For those who are power users, they don’t need a reminder they’re too busy doing other important stuff (like schoolwork or finding a job.)
By the time you read this, all the threads I have from 4chan from 2008 to 2012 are now uploaded. This project has been in the works since the Yotsuba Society website was launched. After 18 months, I've succeeded in making the operation a success. From now on, every month we will be uploading updates to the archives of the 4chan portion of the threads. While doing so I will begin uploading threads from other major *chans in the chanverse beginning this month.
Yotsuba Society published an article called "Origins of Anonymous" a three part series about the origins of Anonymous from a channer pespective, net-character perspective, and from a stand-alone complex perspective. There was a whole set of images to be published here during the articles publishing era, but I did not had the time to get a full series of images onto the website until now. Many of them are from my personal collection of over the years of channing. This will as the ongoing series of the final part of Origins of Anonymous called "The Faces of Anonymous".
