Heh. I’ve had this thought many times, that we used the floppy as a save icon for longer than we even used the damn floppy, and for almost that whole time, there were tons of people coming online who’d never used floppies and would get no help whatsoever from that icon.

Recently I notice that the bookmark has become the metaphor for “save.” Literally an icon showing the end of a bookmark hanging forward. But is this actually an improvement? Does anyone fucking read books anymore??
