I am always wired

I like books. I actually enjoy sitting and reading a great book in my spare time. Key word being spare which leads me to never actually getting to read, but nonetheless I enjoy it. I know exactly why books are not very popular among young people. I see their downfall. Its the lack of interactivity. When you read a book it is up to you to make the images in your mind. All you can do is sit and read the words. The Internet used to be the same way. That was known as Web 1.0 or "suckiness". The interactivity was non-existent. And now look where we are. Youtube is a cultural phenomenon. Everyone can be famous. All you have to do is record yourself dancing. Think about blogs. Blogs actually influence presidential elections. Some fat guy sitting at home on his Mac can actually cause people to vote a certain way. Now that is connection. Cell phones are complete computers that send text messages. They even have some phones with full Internet browsers. You can always check your email on the way to Kroger. The web is always looking for ways to be more interactive. Site designers work not stop to bring more people in. Life will never be the same now that the whole world is getting connected. Trust me, you get addicted and have withdrawals like Lindsay Lohan in rehab.

There is a place called Sardis, Tennessee that only has dial-up Internet! How do I know you ask? That is where I call home and visit on school holidays. I can barely check my email without losing my mind. You absolutely feel lost with the world after being there only a few days. That shows the importance of Web 2.0.
