You're right. It's kind of irritating sometimes—there are rules for how this works! But they do mean well :)
There is more to it than than just oil. OKC didn't go nuts like much of the country did during the real estate boom and likewise we didn't get our asses handed to us when the market dropped. We saw moderate gains…
> Specific to 37signals: How did they make the video? Did the video guy traveled to each and every employee in the video to tape them? He did! It was kind of cool to spend a day with a coworker in my town.
I can't get past the video depicting a 12 year old boy listening to Spoon and watching The King's Speech. Have you ever met a 12 year old boy?
It's totally a thing, the latest in an incredibly long line of the latest thing. Zeldman wrote this in 1999 and it's still true today: "The web used to look like a phone book. Now much of it looks like a design…
