Its assistant says the roadmap is “right after now,” while the older app-era page reports zero bugs “by us.”

Field notes

The page’s fictional product claims change with the era: a 2026 agent supposedly books flights and writes next year’s strategy, while the metaverse section offers a 10,000-item NFT drop. The older app-era copy boasts “0 Bugs reported (by us),” and the Web 2.0 section piles up period vocabulary such as AJAX, mashups, and folksonomy. These details make the changing language of tech hype part of the artifact.
