Slow down, everyone.
Just when I was hoping that our world would slow down, stop relying on technology to live our lives and enjoy the world around us before we destruct it, I read a blog entry from Yahoo! that was put out regarding one of their new services:
“We’re all impatient, Blackberry-wielding, microwave-cooking, Tivo-recording fiends. Why should we wait a minute longer than we have to for our stock quotes? Yahoo! Finance gets that impulsive nature and found a way to get you real-time stock quotes, courtesy of BATS Trading.”
Apparently, the ability to be patient is now a bad thing? One of the few times that you are forced to turn off your communication devices is on a plane. Don’t worry folks, WiFi on airplanes is coming very soon!
