Prodigy
Prodigy
Let's begin by talking about how *not* to do electronic networking. Prodigy, the network where an electronic response on a topic can take three full days. These are people who spent over nine hundred million dollars on their dreadful, hateful idea of a network. When one thinks what the world would look like today if nine tenths of a billion had been dropped on gopher, wais, archie, mosaic, and veronica, it makes you want to weep aloud.
