Welcome Mr. MMX

Well, yes it really is MMX. What are we going to do about it?
One thing is certain – we can’t roll back the clock. It’s not like changing from daylight to standard time, or anything like that. We are now living in a new year.

What’s more, we are living in a new culture. Instant communication, instant gratification, and instant loss of attention by those we try to reach (multitasking) – these are but a few of the new cultural realities we have to deal with, like it or not.

Fruit computers and accessories, berry telephones, pretty cell phones that do just about everything electronically that we used to do independently, including taking movies and still photos – we even have hand held electronic devices to read, instead of books. They’re all part of what’s happening in this, the last year of the new century – the century we all grew up in and lived through.

Seems like, every time the technical community “upgrades” or “improves” something, we actually find it more time-consuming to learn how to use, more difficult to use, and in general questionable as to enhancing our life style.
