My Brain Doesn’t Function Without the Internet
Thursday, December 4th, 2008This morning my apartment’s Comcast Internet connection was down. For whatever vile reason, I was also unable to access the web via my iPhone’s 3G network.
My very first thought? “Dude, I should tweet this.”
I then proceeded to try to access Twitter, first from my computer, then next from my iPhone.
A few moments later my brain kicked in just a bit “Oh… right.”
Where do you post complaints, snarky comments, or short hilarious thoughts when you’ve got no web access? The fridge?
Sometimes I think that any thoroughly web-integrated person is like a wireless cyborg, incapable of functioning properly without web access. If you put me in Amish country, I’d probably lose the ability to speak coherently.
