Zip drives

They were a nice leap from floppy disks, but then CDs happened.

I'm currently waiting on NFTs to crash,
I just don't know what the catalyst will be.

Tivo

The original DVR device. It was amazing at the time. Record live tv and watch whenever. Even could auto skip commercials.

Then cable’s companies created their own inferior devices. And Tivo died. At one time it was its own verb. “I Tivoed Survivor last night and will watch it later.”

Krispy Kreme. From the T.P.

quote:

Krispy Kreme arrived in 2000 to metro New Orleans with much fanfare, with customers lining up before dawn and off-duty police officers hired to direct traffic at its Metairie store.

Dead in 1990s


If it wasn't dead before that, it was on life support for quite a while. But its grave has been being desecrated for the last decade or so.

Those basketball shoes that you could pump up with air. It was a cool concept, I don’t know why they aren’t still around.
