Cameron Barrett's math puzzle.

NetObjects Team Fusion claims to be "the first Web site building solution to recognize -- and capitalize on -- the roles different people play in developing large and complex business Web sites." Hmmm. The NetObjects people have gotten demos of Frontier, from me personally. Their claim is BS.

5/15/96: "Watch This!" explains the website framework we had built in Frontier 4. Even though Clay Basket had many of these features, and was available well before Frontier 4, it seems conservative to claim that we had the features NetObjects is boasting about well over a year ago. We didn't stop there, of course. That's what "still diggin!" means.

Cooool! According to ZDNet, Gateway is going to make Amiga machines.

How do I remove a key from the keyserver? Help! I didn't know what I was doing and I created two IDs, one for each of two email addresses. I did this before I knew that I could associate two mail addresses with one key. I don't understand this FAQ. Is there a simple way to get rid of the extra key?

Former Apple ad exec Michael Markman comments on the ad.

Got Quicktime? Apple posted their TV ad to their website. "Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things, they push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."

A higher quality and smaller version of the ad, thanks to a Scripting News reader.
