You may have noticed the picture of
|
|
[Mario](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_(character)) on the [frontpage](/).
|
|
The picture was taken a few years ago. It was the door to the office I shared
|
|
with a few fellow students.
|
|
|
|
You may also have noticed what happens when you click on the picture. A sound is
|
|
played - a man saying "it's- it's- it's a series of tubes!" If you've been
|
|
visiting the site from multiple devices you should have heard the sound from all
|
|
of the devices!
|
|
|
|
One day I was thinking: "Hm, Mario is a plumber. A plumber fixes the tubes. The
|
|
internet is a series of tubes!"
