I don't know how it was implemented, but there was a similar free food blitz[1] list at Dartmouth in my day. I swear, just catering the campus-funded student organizations' events must have floated half the restaurants in town. Most days, you could eat like a hobbit.
[1] Dartmouth is a weird place and for the longest time ran a unique homegrown emailish/im protocol called BlitzMail, with an entire vocabulary and culture associated with it.
- eigenvalue 10y agoBlitzmail was awesome. It was also used at Reed College.
- dheera 10y agoInteresting. Read a little about BlitzMail. MIT had Zephyr as an IM system which was kind of fun. I miss the days of those old IM systems that I could write my own processing pipelines and UIs for. It's sad that in these walled garden days of Whatsapp, Wechat et al. that there is no way for me to programatically access my own incoming messages.
- physicsyogi 10y agoI was always impressed with Blitzmail's speed. It was certainly faster than any of the email clients I use/try out these days, or at least it seems that way in my memory.
