Mobile Technology
When I was 18, I dialed into a BBS and chatted with people in my local area. Most of us were there because the number was local, and none of us wanted to pay long distance fees. Today, mobile technology makes this seem comical.
Right now, I’m laying on a bed in a hotel room, typing this on my mobile phone. I’m connected to the Internet, and if I was feeling motivated I could use my phone to research and write something meaningful. This is kind of a vacation for me, which is why I’m in a hotel in the first place, so I’m not going to expend that kind of effort, but I could. All the things I can do on my phone now were science fiction 30 years ago.
