you know how i feel bout da old internet. i think, kind of, that's always "sort of been" why i can/could never get fully into net art: it's too, sort, curated or collected right off the bat, i'm not finding it by randomly browsing shit until 4 in the morning and then having my mind blown. search is half the excitement of stuff :(
the purpose of web based art moved from discovery to presentation. once that happened, the medium folded in on itself and became just another screen.
sort of sums it uh huh? After surfclubs and now tumblr and now it's galleries and facebook invites everyday for some group show. But I don't mind so much. Though I do agree about the exploration aspect ...
