A new VHS transfer from original NOS tapes. Hosted by Robert X. Cringely. All rights reserved by PBS Broadcasting and Channel 4.

Mostly Digital Blasphemy backgrounds with similar color themed xmms and friends running. -
🔗 What if your website had business hours? — Bobbie Chen
While reviewing the draft, my friend Michael L. pointed out that while most websites are up all the time, some are not - for example, B&H Photo doesn't accept orders on Saturdays for religious reasons. So what if our software business had limited hours instead, like a physical-world store?
I really like this idea. A lot. More businesses should do this and help re-calibrate society to a slower pace of life.
