Project Xanadu
Yesterday went to ECP to run again, 14km... wtf i never ran that long in my life and worse of all i overestimated my stamina... i ran too fast for the first 7 km and was left with a soring feet for the last 7km.. I almost flew into the lake when my right leg crammed and i couldn't drag it forward, the guy running in front of me looked back at me and a girl behind me ask her friend what was i doing super paiseh sia.
Anyway about my nick, Xanadu is a vision in a dream, written by a 18th century person, Project Xanadu was founded by Ted Nelson in 1960s and was suppose to be a hypertext model which have is capable of processing multiple version of a original piece of information, however it never take off and instead we have the world wide web or internet.
What i felt about it is that like my own project, haha i guess it will never take off and i will end up with the worst case scenario, so somehow i have to minimise the objectives and create a simpler version like the worldwide web, Ted Nelson idea was original and inspired the creation of the internet but he never got to implement it because of the few objective he set out to achieve with his project, which ended up driving him to bankruptcy a few times.
