Apparently Google suggestion is so psychic that from “jonathan s” it knew i wanted jonathan schwartz’s blog. I think if someone wrote a firefox plugin that successfully figured out how many words on the given page belong to whatever article is being displayed and figured out my reading speed, i could be about halfway to having a completely non-interactive internet. I would open up firefox and it would pick the first element in one of my news feeds depending on time of day, and it would then proceed to follow the links it has statistically determined i would like to follow. Naturally every fifth article or so my life would be auctioned off to the highest bidder on a 30 second semi relevant link about Microsoft’s latest CRM package or the wonders of Oracle’s latest database offering.
I am officially an addict of computers and the internet. Flaunt Jewelry and Snap Happy Cameras have both been significant beneficiaries of my recent time being locked in various floating metal tubes or waiting for various activities in the hotel room. You might be an addict if the sun is setting over the pacific ocean in mexico, on christmas eve, it’s 72 degrees outside and you’re hunched over a computer trying to make it so a form displays its controls properly after being resized.
Oh and i’m in mexico.
