Fun Stuff > CHATTER

Probably the greatest headline the NY Times has ever ran

<< < (11/12) > >>

Scrambled Egg Machine:
I regularly do. I still am amazed by the scope of technology in my world.

ViolentDove:
Yeah... when wifi is free and ubiquitous, it'll be pretty futuristic. Anything you want to know, anytime, you'll be able to find out. It'll totally ruin pub trivia.

Also, I'm kind of worried people won't have to store knowledge in their heads any more, because information on everything will be so easy to access. I guess this is kind of a semi-irrational fear.

RedLion:
A while back, I read that, scientifically, there's more information in a week's worth of The New York Times than most people in the 1700's learned in their entire lives.

On some level, that almost scares me.

jhocking:
Yet another of the many fine reasons to be glad you are alive today and not the 18th century.

GenericName:
But no one reads a week's worth of the New York Times, unless they're going on a trip and have nothing else to do in the car.
