azspot:
In Internet history, 1994-2004 was the era of the pioneers. 2004-2007 was the era of the merchants. Now we’re entering the era of the bullies.

I’m talking about our tendency to be plugged-in to the point of constant distraction. With the rapid spread of smart phones, more and more people are “on” 24/7.
