The Delight of Always-On Internet
I really enjoy my iPhone – it still feels like a new toy. But what I think I like the most is that it’s always online (assuming signal, of course). Movie questions answered (IMDB app), instant email access, weather from the Weather Channel (app), and of course, blogging. I’m on my PC right this second, but sometimes I do like to post a blog right on the spot.
But my favorite thing, especially in a car or while walking, is to stream music. Shoutcast, Pandora and lately last.fm (ooh, yes – that). Obviously, I could turn on the radio in the car, but my musical tastes veer pretty far off what we get on the airwaves around here. On the Internet, that problem does not apply. Feel like some electro-industrial? Just pick your station.
I don’t know why, but it just feels like the future.
