Modern times

In the telecom industry, ‘convergence‘ was a buzz word for many years. It stands for phone, broadband and tv delivered over a single medium, like a wire or over a cellular connection. The benefits are of course immeasurable. In my days, I’d be bored waiting for the bus. Possibly reading a book borrowed from the library. How old fashioned! These days you are bored waiting for the bus. But wait! With technological progress and $600 of your parents’ money you can now be bored by state of the art gadgets and converged technology! Not only that, social media lets you share your boredom with the whole world! If that ain’t progress I don’t know what is.
