Srw, what would a cyber "widow's walk" look like?

Perhaps if I knew what a "widow's walk" was without the cyber, I
could translate. I am not familiar with that expression,
(or else it is too late, and I am not operating on all cylinders.)
Thank you, Brenner. That's about as poetic as a propellerhead can get.

A "Widow's walk" is one of those little railed walkways on top of a steeply
gabled roofed on a victorian house... with very ornate wrought iron railings.
The widow was supposed to walk on this thing a lot, hoping the long lost hubby
would appear from his long absence, and the best vantage point for viewing
such a return was this thing on the roof.
Maybe if you keep logging into an old (insert old crusty mainframe model) and
checking for email, even when you really know nobody else logs in any more...

Scott got it.. widow's walks were most common on seashore homes,
for wives who had sailor husbands..

I see. Thanks.
The link is slow tonight. Perhaps that's a cyber foghorn I hear.
