CSICON, The Committee for the Surrealist Investigation of Claims of the Normal, is a site that focuses on the latest news and opinions regarding movies, television, gaming, tech, society, comics and other things that may or may not fall into the convenient umbrella term of “nerd culture”. The page was founded and launched to the public on January 1st, 2011, by Breki Tomasson. Together with a couple of his friends and other people who have joined the team along the way he’s built the page up the point where it is today, constantly looking for new ways to expand the reach and grasp of the page.
Apart from the great writers and podcasters who make this page possible, a big debt of gratitude goes to the following groups, companies and people for making CSICON possible:
- Datakultur, the hosting company that carries the page.
- Elin J, the virtuoso that drew both our logo and our banner.
- WordPress, the software it is based on.
- Woothemes, who provided a free theme that has since then been modified dramatically for CSICON.
- W3 Total Cache, which improves the site loading times and makes for a better viewing experience.
- Amazon’s S3 Solution, which further improves loading times by co-hosting all of our static media.
- Google AdSense, for providing the advertisements and income source on the page.
- Google Analytics, for providing a fantastic service to obsess over visitor statistics.
- Robert Anton Wilson, for inventing the name we’re using.
And, of course, many, many, more.
