091 Let's Chat (Medium)

MIT is having a lot of fun here, and Harvard on the other side is a little unable to sit still.

Did you take into account our feelings?

If you hadn't heard it from the alumni, how long would you have been going to hide it?

When the Harvard-born alumnus chatted with another MIT-born alumnus, he was sneered at.

What to say, the glory of Harvard is about to become history, Harvard can no longer keep up with the pace of the development of the times, and Harvard will inevitably be reduced to a second-rate school......

After careful questioning, I learned that quietly, MIT had come up with a campus forum, which was called a fun and honest one! Even the old monsters who had been silent for many years came out to participate in activities, interacting with the students, discussing ideals, and rewarding the backwards.

The entire Massachusetts Institute of Technology seems to have activated all the precipitation at once, and it is about to usher in a new life.

How can this work?

As the biggest competitor, you came up, didn't you just step on our scalp and climb up?

Harvard next door, unhappy, very unhappy.

We also have a computer department, why don't we have a good brain, and we have a forum for this?

I know all day long that I have been tinkering with some biological sciences and researching this disease and that medicine, why don't I study some medicine and cure my own stupidity? ）

There are also computer experts here at Harvard, making a replica version, which is a matter of minutes. If it's not the Manhattan Project, or the moon landing program, how difficult can it be?

As soon as this was said, it was vetoed by the new headmaster, Neil.

If you can't figure it out yourself, it's shameful enough, and you still want to plagiarize others, do you want our face anymore? Do you want the hundred-year-old "friendship" between the two schools?

The two schools, as peers of the opposite door, have loved and killed each other for hundreds of years, you have me, I have you. Some of Harvard's teachers have taught at MIT, and some of MIT professors have switched to Harvard.

Although they look down on each other, it is also a hostile challenge and respect between heroes. When have you ever seen Harvard denigrate a university in Africa?

Neil also had a good relationship with Charles, the president of MIT, and he communicated a lot of times.

I found the phone number, first called a few words haha, and then got to the point:

Your T-BOOK is very popular, but it's too childish to be open to people from other schools. Is it because there is not enough money, or is it all spent by you going to Las Vegas?

We at Harvard welcome such talents to join our school!

Under some ridicule, how could Charles not understand that this was Harvard's disguised admission of defeat and let the website be open for use.

Charles, who was happy in his heart, immediately found George and told him what he thought, but was unexpectedly rejected by George.

Charles was very optimistic about the young man and was not prepared to force him to agree. If this person is in a hurry and jumps to Harvard, it will become a big joke.

"It's not that they can use it for free, they can pay for it, just like pay TV. Schools can also fund a portion of you as funding for scaling up. ”

George shook his head: "It's not about money, it's about security." If it is open to the outside world, it will definitely lead to conflicts with our school users, and there will be confusion in management. ”

"Can't we review Harvard's student number and job number?"

As soon as the words came out, Charles himself laughed.

Examining the authenticity of Harvard personnel, I really don't have that authority.

After thinking about it for a while, Charles proposed a solution: "How about authenticating your identity through ID?"

George vetoed again: "We need the authorization of the FBI to confirm the authenticity of an ID." The CIA, in particular, will definitely scrutinize us strictly. ”

"These three European suits are blue pools. Seeing that his pretending 13 major business was about to be ruined, Charles couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

Immediately, he said to George, who was secretly laughing: "You don't have to worry about this, you just need to do your job and launch a public version." ”

The so-called public version is actually a euphemism on the Internet. Those who are at MIT continue to use the intranet. Others, don't even want to join my high-level intranet.

So, a few days later, people at Harvard University found traces of T-BOOK on the public network.

Oddly enough, there aren't many MIT posts in it. There are just a few, and there are only three or two kittens, and I haven't seen the legendary big guy at all.

Neil understands that Charles's stingy ** disease has been committed again.

He didn't bother to ask for help, just have an extranet to use. Big deal, go back and get a better and more advanced one yourself.

Even if it were to be yourself, would you share resources with others without reservation? Not necessarily.

Ordinary students don't care so much, just have a useful way to get in touch. You don't have to be ridiculed as a "primitive person" when you meet MIT students.

Moreover, the biggest advantage of the extranet is that you don't need a student number, as long as you have a U.S. ID number, you can register and log in, which is really much more interesting than the intranet that is limited to students and teachers.

Chat with teachers and classmates, how can you have fun chatting with bar girls.

Many students with a relatively "rich" nightlife have introduced their fox friends and N-number girlfriends to register on this website, and they can share their life experiences at any time.

Since the top students of Harvard and MIT say that this website is good, there are indeed many people from Harvard and MIT who haunt it. Other schools that want to catch up with these two universities have also joined in, and see what the masters of these two schools are usually discussing.

Slowly, the site became polarized.

On the one hand, there are theological masters and tutors discussing superconductivity and fuzzy control, and on the other hand, there are all kinds of show affection and dazzling famous cars.

It's not that no one is curious, what do those guys from famous schools usually say? I ran in and took a look, but I didn't understand a word. Occasionally, I pretended to understand, and when I replied, I was immediately sprayed into a sieve.

How can this be endured?

Resolutely unfold the scolding, must be dropped.

There are also a lot of big trolls in colleges and universities, and they have launched a scolding mode.

A good forum has been made into a miasma and has become the world of street fighters. Even some indisputable purely academic posts have been messed up by some people.

This has led to an intuitive consequence: high-quality potential customers spend less time on the site, and more and more low-quality people who have no spending power.

It has even led to the fact that some criminal gangs openly conduct illegal transactions on it.

How can this work?

Using my website as a trading venue, you pay protection money, uh no, are you taking the FBI and CIA into account?

The website took the initiative to report, cracked down on criminal activities, and launched a VIP and introducer system.

VIP members can enjoy their own rooms, except for the people he invites, no one else can enter and cannot see the content of their conversations.

The fee is also very low, only $10 per month, and you can enjoy an 85% discount on the annual subscription, which is really cost-effective.

The annual membership fee of $100 is really not worth mentioning for those elites. As soon as the news came out, more than 100,000 people wanted to enjoy VIP treatment.

Those black club bosses who have already made a few orders of business are even more ready to fill each of their younger brothers with a member, so that they can contact other customers at any time.

The introducer system appeared at the right time.

If you want to charge V, you need to be introduced by a person with a good reputation and a high reputation for abiding by laws and regulations.

As for who is the person with high credibility, of course, it is the celebrities and those elites from all walks of life.

Moreover, whoever introduces the most registered people every month will get a chance to send "world news", similar to ringing a bell on the NASDAQ.

It is impossible for an ordinary person to ring a bell on the NASDAQ once in eight lifetimes. Here, there is a chance for the bigwigs of the whole United States to see their names, and they have to try their best to pull people to fill V.

According to a rough estimate, in just a few months in 1992, George grabbed nearly 10 million dollars in benefits, laying the foundation for the future IT empire.
