I logged into my old AOL account and found this…

Anyone older than this date?

The Inside Story of PC Magazine, PC World, and Macworld's Origins, as Told by David Bunnell

Introduction by Harry: David Bunnell (1947-2016) didn't create the idea of computer magazines. But he may have done more than anyone to turn them into a big business. In the 1970s, when David was working at pioneering PC company MITS, he published Computer Notes—as far as I know, the first periodica

You can’t monetize the network, indeed.

@adam Listened to Ep 136 of Podcasting 2.0 and agree completely with you on the Apple Vision Pro. It's absolutely my first thought as a use case. And at $3,500, if the displays are as good as they claim, it's less expensive than 4 high-end displays. Especially how you can incorporate the computer screen.
