âTin Manâ. Good choice. Better than âVentura Highwayâ or âSister Golden Hairâ (the latter of which could be misleading). And tons better than âHorse with No Nameâ.
Heh. I remember a â90âs forum like that called Adulterers something-or-other. We ended up getting to know each other so well, we actually had real dinner parties as a group, dated each other, etc. Knew my W was cheating on me so figured what the heyâŠ.

Peter Steinerâs cartoon, as published in The New YorkerâOn the Internet, nobody knows youâre a dogâ is an adage and meme about Internet anonymity which began as a cartoon caption written by Peter Steiner and published by The New Yorker on July 5, 1993.12 The cartoon features two dogs: one sitting on a chair in front of a computer, speaking the caption to a second dog sitting on the floor.3 As of 2013, the panel was the most reproduced cartoon from The New Yorker, and Steiner had earned between $200,000 and $250,000 US from its reprinting.1456
Peter Steiner, a cartoonist and contributor to The New Yorker since 1979,6 said the cartoon initially did not get a lot of attention, but that it later took on a life of its own, and he felt similar to the person who created the âsmiley faceâ.1 In fact, Steiner was not that interested in the Internet when he drew the cartoon, and although he did have an online account, he recalled attaching no âprofoundâ meaning to the cartoon; it was just something he drew in the manner of a âmake-up-a-captionâ cartoon.1
In response to the comicâs popularity, he stated, âI canât quite fathom that itâs that widely known and recognized.â1
The cartoon marks a notable moment in the history of the Internet. Once the exclusive domain of government engineers and academics, the Internet had by then become a subject of discussion in general interest magazines like The New Yorker. Lotus Software founder and early Internet activist Mitch Kapor commented in a Time magazine article in 1993 that âthe true sign that popular interest has reached critical mass came this summer when the New Yorker printed a cartoon showing two computer-savvy caninesâ.7
The cartoon symbolizes an understanding of Internet privacy that stresses the ability of users to send and receive messages in general anonymity.

The Internet: where the men are men, the women are men, and the little girls are FBI agents.
