The Fark. This site is cool. It is kind of a portal to funny news and occasionally some Hot Ladies.
In the meantime, Drew had somehow gotten into the habit of sending odd news to friends of his in England, where he lived for a year while in college. He started sending emails with the funny news stories to his friends via email. However, emails were going out several times a day, and Drew started to suspect that they might be annoying. Remembering he owned the Fark.com domain name, he started a website and told all his friends to go there for the weird news. That was February 12, 1999.
