Here is the first firm I remember in the business.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/VocalTec

Their software was running over dialup internet (144 kbps IIRC) on Windows 95 (or possibly earlier). Wasn't very usable at the time, but definitely earlier than the patent filing referenced above.
I wonder how BDS people make phone calls...

So I randomly clicked on the "comments" of one of the tweets: https://twitter.com/DansDeals/status/1163553120326246400

I can't believe this nut is still at it!



If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

In a way, I feel bad for the guy. Looks like he's allowing his jealousy to eat him up from inside.

There are a bunch of people who consistently do that on Twitter. Shows a lack of professionalism and class, while the lack of engagement on the DD side, shows exactly that, professionalism and class.

I just don't understand what they want to achieve, i mean, they know that DD has been around way before them.

People get upset about something, they stop thinking logically, or realizing how immature they look.

This is nothing new, nor is it exclusive to any one person.

The best part about it. They were commenting on deals that I personally sent to JJ.

That shows on your HT/post ratio!

Quite a unique profile you've got over there.

Not sure I would use "professionalism and class" when talking about Twitter.  :)
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half
