a blast from my past...
Wednesday, February 06, 2008 - 04:02 PM
Via a link in my facebook, I came across:
It’s the I.P.O., Stupid!.
My first job from college (actually helped start, and got credit for it as a senior project) was as the original programmer for theglobe.com.
I remember long hours back in the CS lab at Cornell getting our version of web based chat (one of only 3 at the time )running on our PowerMac 6100 pizza box machines. And the random outages we had whenever we decided to play a networked game of Marathon.

Geez, you're old. Of course, I can remember having an argument about whether MS-DOS or CP/M would be the dominant operating system. (I was wrong.)
By the way, I updated the client list in the DH paragraph of the Dumbrella [wikipedia.org] listing at WP. Let me know if I forgot anything.

The only one I noticed missing was Dinosaur Comics [qwantz.com]. You must have forgotten that I control Ryan North.

Whoops! Right. I also forgot Project Wonderful.
Any secret negotiations in progress with potential clients?

and since this thread has somehow become a spam magnet, I will now lock it.
It's not like anyone but Kinyon and myself will notice, anyway.
