UI improvement of the @GoToWebinar Viewer needed: cannot resize the Control Panel on a Mac

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/02/12

UX fail: None of the buttons on the window will resize the Control Panel.

“An Ancient Piece of Computer Lore in a Place You’d Never Expect” or “Dungeon (Zork) Map in Duplicity” | Porkrind Dot Org Missives

Posted by jpluimers on 2013/12/27

More than 2 years ago, I wrote about InfoCom adventures before, and recently noticed that since then a Zork map I saw like 30 years ago is now online in a digital scanned version.

Cool!

Thanks David Caldwell for putting it online.
