SpinnWebe was the personal website of Greg Galcik, also known as "spinn." It gathered the most fame as the home of the
Dysfunctional Family Circus, which ran in the late 1990s. Additionally, the site was the showcase for a number of Galcik's other projects, which generally had
interactive humor as the unifying theme; in this respect, it anticipated the development of later sites such as
Fark and
Something Awful. The name SpinnWebe comes from an infamously bad
machine translation of the
German word for "
spider web."
