On Lasting Forever
A thing has happened too many times for me to count.
- I sign up for a great service on the internet,
- other people like it, too,
- so they sign up also.
- It gets big and either
- becomes a cesspool OR gets bought by another company (sometimes both) and then
- it gets shut down.
One service I used was called Posterous. It was lovely.
Well, I just learned today that Garry Tan and Brett Gibson created a new blogging platform called Posthaven, designed to last for the next 100 years. That’s pretty cool. It’s like what 37Signals- they’ll keep supporting it until the end of the internet.
Have a Good Life.
