About

Yes, this actually is an "About" page.

Number 17 is a weblog dedicated to the ramblings, rants, reviews, recounts, recitations, regurgitations and reminisces of a select group of authors. But before we delve further into the site, its purpose and its contributors, we must examine what the number, 17, is.

What is the site Number 17?

Number 17 is a weblog featuring a wide variety of authors and contributors, posting on various topics ranging from politics and sociology, to anime and video games, and all the way to what authors have or claim to have had for lunch.

Due to our highly intelligent array of contributors and authors (who have IQ scores of at least 145) and the diversity of our interests and hobbies, Number 17 can provide a literary experience for multitudes of audiences, be they willing or unwilling participants in what we have arbitrarily dubbed a “phenomenon”.

Number 17 is managed by the fictional not-for-profit for-profit company Number 17 Inc., whose CEO, Hans, founded the original predecessor of the Number 17 website as a personal testbed weblog. Having grown over many years to finally reach its permanently seventeenth iteration, Number 17′s many esteemed authors and contributors continue to author and publish posts of the utmost highest calibre for the enlightenment and entertainment of our readers.

Who are the Contributing Writers?

While difficult to fathom, and ultimately accept, they are indeed human. Number 17 depends on its contributors greatly, and without their sacrifice of time, energy and effort, this website could not have become what it is today — a website.

Administrator (maintains the site)

Editors (manages posts)

Authors (contributors to Number 17′s posts)
