Fan site · 1996-style robot fan page
Jabituya
A Short Circuit fan page dressed as a 1996 website, selling JABITUYA, a desk robot companion from NOVA Robotics.
Why I made it
A spin-off of my Cyrano page. Someone I was chatting with pointed out that in Short Circuit, Ben Jabituya coaches Johnny Five remotely while Johnny Five is on a date. They suggested I rename it — I didn't take their direction, but I did take the name.
What's on the page
- An “under construction, last updated 12/14/1996” banner and a visitor counter
- Features, technical specs (8 MHz, 512 KB of Neural RAM, 42 lbs) and a photo gallery
- An FAQ, a guestbook form, a Cool Links list and web awards
- “Best viewed at 800×600 resolution with Netscape Navigator 3.0 or Internet Explorer 3.0”
