Periodically, I ponder the changes the cyber-revolution has wrought. It tickles me that I use a large part of my computing power to watch old black & white movies on the laptop. I ran across a quote the other day by Jonathan Greenblatt – “There is more computing power in our Blackberries than there was in the control room in Houston that put a man on the moon.” And what are we using it for? Twitter, Facebook, old movies and youtube. “May you live in interesting times.”

Really, I need a big red arrow on stuff like this.
