      @djsundog It was such a simpler time when you could easily impress people with your guestbook CGI Perl or shell script that just appended comments to a plain text file that just got stuck in an HTML page with a server side include...

      ...and people were so innocent and considerate that we haven't even heard of a CAPTCHA or other anti-web-spam stuff yet.

      Maybe we can't go back but we could really use some simplicity on the web again. #TooManyLayers
