A guest on the system, especially one who generally
logs in over a network from a remote location for comm mode,
electronic mail, games and other trivial purposes. A
tourist is one step below a luser.
Hackers often spell this turist, perhaps by some sort of
tenuous analogy with luser (this also expresses the ITS
culture's penchant for six-letterisms).
Compare twink, read-only user.

n.
1. [ITS] A guest on the system, especially one who generally logs in over a
network from a remote location for comm mode, email, games, and other
trivial purposes. One step below luser. ITS hackers often used to spell
this turist, perhaps by some sort of tenuous analogy with luser (this
usage may also have expressed the ITS culture's penchant for
six-letterisms, and/or been some sort of tribute to Alan Turing). Compare {
twink}, lurker, read-only user.
2. [IRC] An IRC user who goes from channel to channel without saying
anything; see channel hopping.

tourist information
(foldoc) | tourist information
Information in an on-line display that is not immediately
useful, but contributes to a viewer's gestalt of what's going
on with the software or hardware behind it. Whether a given
piece of info falls in this category depends partly on what
the user is looking for at any given time. The "bytes free"
information at the bottom of an MS-DOS "dir" display is
tourist information; so (most of the time) is the TIME
information in a Unix "ps(1)" display.
