Technological Conservatism
17 Apr 2013 • hypercritical.coYeah, pressing seven buttons in sequence is so much work. You need a faster way to call someone. Pressing just one button instead will be such a big change in your life, won’t it? You’ll finally have time to write that novel.
You’ve got a way to send a piece of paper from your home to anywhere in the entire country for literal pocket change, but that’s just too much work for you. You need to talk to someone right now, hearing an actual voice as if it’s in the same room instead of miles away.
Great read by John Siracusa.
