-  <h2>what isn't tilde.town?</h2>
-  <p>it's never super fun to define stuff in a negative sense, but there has been a lot of confusion around what tilde.town is and isn't. tilde.town is <i>not</i> a startup. it is <i>not</i> commercial in any way. tilde.town, as a side effect, has features of a social network but it is not intended to be the "next" anything (except maybe geocities or angelfire). tilde.town is <b>not</b> <a href="http://tilde.club">tilde.club</a> but is inspired by it.</p>
- <h2>who is tilde.town?</h2>
-<p>tilde.town is made up of its members. we are a group of creative folk
-interested in peer education and digital art. the founder is <a
-href="http://tilde.town/~vilmibm">~vilmibm</a> whom you are more than welcome to
-talk at via <a href="https://twitter.com/nate_smith">twitter</a> or <a
-href="mailto:nathanielksmith@gmail.com">email</a>.</p>
- <h2>why tilde.town?</h2>
-<p>making websites is harder than ever; everything that
-can be commercialized is being commercialized; knowledge is being carved up and
-locked away for profit; software is increasingly proprietary and bloated.
-tilde.town is an experiment in reclaiming a bygone era of low-barrier,
-judgement-free, low stakes expression with a focus on low-tech art and
-pseudonymous creation.</p>
