The protocols and methodology are not truly open and there is a very high level of complexity underlying products that should be as simple as possible.

I simply missed the geocities shutdown, went past me in the media. I dont know how. Now I am desperatly waiting for the archiv to come up and I hope that all my old grafic design stuff which I stored on geocities is still there. Thanks for the big effort. Keep it up!

It would appear that you, Jason, are not the only one to think of distribution on USB sticks:

Apple & EMI are putting out the Beatles catalog (with a bunch of digital extras) on a USB key. While this is obviously more of a collector’s item than a primary distribution mechanism, I don’t think it’s last we’ll see of this method of distribution.

Good point. If I gotta get pants for this, well, I can tell you what the next project hosted on Kickstarter is gonna be.

Excellent work, Jason. And to all who participated in the effort. I wish you guys had been around during the destruction of the Great Library of Alexandria.

Heeeyyyyyy, be sure to let us know how to listen, as I couldn’t find an URL and I’m not sure how it’d all work with Skype. And if there is anything I can do to help, lemme know.
