If you think society hasn’t been changed forever by the Internet you didn’t see the Grammys tonight. I just witnessed a montage of multitasked songs from Maroon 5 and other bands (I am so unhip, I didn’t know the others). The songs were actually interlaced, meaning a song went on for a minute and then another band started up and another band played in-between the spaces in the other bands singing and so on.
10 years ago everyone would have changed the channel. Today, probably most of the audience was on their laptops or reading or eating or conversing or whatever we all do now since we are so used to getting input from multiple sources at once.
This national ADD is contagious and it is going worldwide. I am convinced that humans are able to do more, faster, better and smarter due to the technology of multiple windows and multitasking.
The world is changing and I think for the better. Now that the Grammys have recognized geeks like me, perhaps I should put my laptop down for a few minutes and pay attention.
