- soylentcola 10y agoSure, but while not quite the same level, my voicemail icon is a reel-to-reel tape and lots of "save" icons are floppy disks.
- navbaker 10y agoMy wife and I occasionally wonder if our one year old will think we're crazy when we talk about "taping" a show.
- danellis 10y agoNo, probably (s)he'll complete accept it and not even give a thought to its etymology. It's just the word that names that action.
- StavrosK 10y agoProbably about as crazy as your dad was when he was writing a file to disk, or when you post something on Facebook.
- Retr0spectrum 10y agoWell, technically it's still a POST request.
- StavrosK 10y agoWhich is exactly as retro!
- soylentcola 10y agoAt my workplace, we route video and audio over Cat5 to specialized PCs with capture cards, running software that records and then streams or uploads to a video content server where people can log into an account and view a list of presentations on a content management application. They still email to ask if I can tape their upcoming event.
