  15. Down in the lobby waiting for the airport shuttle. Goodbye #cfobjective, hope to see you next year!
  16. @coofuushun @elegant_chaos @marcesher Wikipedia seems to think Steve Nelson and Gabe Roffman created the original Fusebox.
  17. @PhillipSenn ...remains to be seen. That was pretty much the gist of it.
  18. @PhillipSenn ...but it was just an idea put out there. Whether it goes further than that (spawns renewed discussion or actual coding)...
  19. @PhillipSenn ...option or plugin. Idea was floated about maybe building such a thing on top of Mura CMS with their plugin system...
  20. @PhillipSenn ...that researchers/teachers could customize for their needs. Something that could possibly support payments as well as an...
