Wow, in the 4th video, where he's showing off NextStep mail application, the definition of smooth scrolling has definitely changed over the decades.

- duckfruit 15y agoThat being said, after watching this video it struck me how little innovation has being going on in the email space. Granted, change for change's sake is not always a good thing, but for a video made before I was born it seems strange that even the mail.app that ships with Lion still hasn't fundamentally changed from its neXt forebears - we still have the three large horizontal textboxes on top of a large textarea for the body, and everything seems to function in exactly the same manner. No wonder people my age barely use email anymore. A subject line? really?
- robotresearcher 15y agoWhat's wrong with the subject line? I'm genuinely interested in the post-email phenomenon. Us old timers sometimes would sometimes put a whole short message in the subject line, giving roughly the functionality of an instant message.
- protomyth 15y agoDo note that the video is not particularly good. In real life it was pretty smooth.
