TERMS OF WEBSITE USE

First, many thanks to Ben Nadel and BenNadel.com for his open-source generation of this page's "Terms and Conditions of Use." I met Ben only virtually as a result of reconstructing the Comad.com website, in my research for prototypes of Terms of Use pages.

The majority of "prototypes" I found were major-length legal documents that would deter just about anyone from proceeding deeper into the website past the "lawyer's" page... pretty obnoxious. Then, I fell into Ben's world of open-source contributions to the world of improving everyone's Internet experience.

Ben is "major geek." Proof? Here's Ben's "about Ben" statement:

"I am the co-founder and chief technical officer at InVision App, Inc — the world's leading prototyping, collaboration & workflow platform. I also rock out in JavaScript and ColdFusion 24x7 and I dream about promise resolving asynchronously."

Get it? Got it? Ben's blog reads like script pages from "2001 - A Space Odyssey," "Star Wars" ("IV,' but the first one; the good one, except Ben's pages would have been the ones Lucas rejected because even he wouldn't understand the dialog), and script dialog (not coding) from one of the most memorable space-science films, "Rocketship XM," starring Lloyd Bridges, Osa Massen, John Emery, Noah Beery, Jr. and Hugh O'Brian.

When Ben says he "rocks out" and "dreams," here are his delivery results (all posted on BenNadel.com):
