Cellphones do everything, just nothing useful
Can I complain about
technology here? Not my usual curmudgeonly bit about how machinery can’t
save our souls, social media are stupid and electric light killed the
night sky. I mean why are we surrounded by so much fancy stuff doing so
little?For instance, I’d sooner leave home without my wallet than my “cellphone” with 32 gigs of memory, lightning-fast processor and not just Plants vs. Zombies and Minesweeper but e-mail, Internet searches, my research files in the cloud and a terrific mapping app. Oh, and a 41 megapixel camera.
My Windows phone might attract ridicule from tattooed nonconformists all clutching a handful of trendy brands. But if I must have technology, give me this. And some apps from all those squaresville companies still thinking the Apple Store’s cutting edge. But I digress… slightly.
