Its A Miracle!!
So this is my first ever mobile posting to my blog. I'm in a cab right now, on my way from JFK airport to Joe's new place in Brooklyn... And I'm posting on my freakin' blog!
Yeah, yeah, I know. Its no big deal. I came of age along with the Internet, so the technology all makes sense to me. I know all about how it works and what makes it go. That's not what gets me about it.
Just the fact that we *can* do stuff like this - that's what amazes me.
Just 15 years ago, nobody was online yet. Nobody outside universities and the military, anyway. 5 years prior to that almost nobody had a fax. Now we're instantaniousily communicating point-to-point all around the world (to mobile targets, no less) using various forms of media.
Damn.
The cab is nearing Joe's, so I'll sign off. Its fun to think that if anything cool happens tonight, I can blog it in seconds!

I know all about the Internet as well.
It's a series of tubes.
