Many people think aol is going the wrong way, and I couldn’t agree more. But there is hope. Great hope in fact. Many people cite that before a technology becomes “pop,” it must pass through the “geek” culture. In other words, geeks must find it useful, and will eventually round off the sharp corners for the general populace. My point is that many people are beginning to use third party instant messaging clients, that serve not only AIM screen names, but also ICQ, and Yahoo. I cite Trillian, but I know there are many others. These front line technologies will begin to see appearances to us, not on the computer scree for that has already been conquered, but rather cell phones and PDA’s. Then to computers they will migrate. I think this is how the internet will work in the next year or five. But I am only ranting. Tell me what you think
Adios.
All pay notice to Bob Dole’s great grandeur, for I would Hate it if you missed out…
