For the record, at 10:30 in the video you talk about the original RoIT site failing. It was never released to the public as such, we played around with the idea of it for a while but setting up a non-profit entity and all that's involved in that was way more work and money than we'd originally thought. We decided not to go forward with the project since but I don't think that really counts as failing. I'm glad someone pointed to the WBM link, I had forgotten that we'd made the domain name into a rick roll, that made me smile.

Looks like some fun toys. Do we all get to play?

Afraid it is all internal

So you are just teasing us then? Seems fair!

Not knocking it, just interested. I've only had a quick look through some of the threads and have seen a lot of 'points' based on funny answers and such. I'm interested to see how that plays out as the site grows.

So, what's with the name? Why name an IT website after an Indian fruity drink?

Cute, easy to remember, neutral. And there is a hidden pun in there somewhere too. I imagine that it being a popular drink to cool down after eating spicy food has nothing to do with it.

And helps to counteract the butthurt that comes with it I guess?

Windows 10 as a service is already a thing for enterprise and it seems like recent consumer versions have been leaning more that way as well. Everyone's getting on the Netflix / gym membership subscription model these days. I'm not a fan but I get it.
