In the 1980s and 1990s, Bulletin board system (BBS) provided more communal ways of communicating and sharing messages. In these systems, someone would start a “thread” by posting an initial message. Others could reply to the previous set of messages in the thread.
I think its interesting how someone can make a code where announcements are made and other can add onto to it and make messages out of it. Leading this to make a entire interface is very interesting!
omeone in another country would have to try to find a way to indicate that they aren’t in the United States even though there is no clear place to indicate that.
Its crazy how IT people can access to more than what we think they have access too
Bots present a similar disconnect between intentions and actions. Bot programs are written by one or more people, potentially all with different intentions, and they are run by others people, or sometimes scheduled by people to be run by computers.
Bots can be very convenient for shopping online if your trying to buy a item thats hard to buy however, not a lot people are fans of it.
