Harry McCracken's article about the life and death of multimedia cd-roms provides a good retrospective of its glory days. i wonder how many people today can remember a time when they did not have to be suspicious or skeptical about facts they were reading, because it was written by a team of editors with research and writing standards? https://www.fastcompany.com/91128052/history-of-cd-roms-encarta-myst #multimedia #cdrom #softwareHistory

    @vga256@mastodon.tomodori.net Maybe it's my age or where I live, but I remember playing many different CD-ROM based games and used other CD-ROM software, but I've never heard of Myst until today!
