Give me back my technology!

May 1st, 2008, 3:57 pm · Post a Comment · posted by kylew

I lost a chunk of what little hair I have left when our phone and Internet service went down during a fiber cut for a local communications company on Wednesday afternoon.

I spent the afternoon frantically picking up the phone to check for a dial tone and opening up Firefox to see if the Internet was up and running.

A watched pot never boils? No kidding.

Hard to believe now, but I remember doing our college newspaper without benefit of the Internet or a phone.

That was only eight years ago.

Amazing how far the technology has come and how we take it for granted.

How did you spend your Wednesday afternoon.? Did the technology outage affect your day? Post your thoughts here.
