    I love this. Shared it with a lot of my CS friends and most people didn’t get that it was a joke. Which is a meta commentary on SaaS in itself. I love that it works too

I think what my news year's resolution should have been is to read and judge things slowly :-D
    Kudos to the team for making this! :-)
