Darren Carter’s Penalty Kick
By Simon Brew in Editorial
Posted in Uncategorized on
Can I, I wonder, start a revolution? Can I be the one who declares that social networking is not the greatest thing the world has seen since Darren Carter’s penalty took Birmingham City into the Premiership back in 2002 (and, bluntly, we all know how good that was)?
I avidly consume technology, and both rely on and choose to utilise it for both work and entertainment. But, in what surely has me pinned already as a fuddy-duddy or an outcast in the modern ‘Web 2.0’ (and don’t get me started on that) world, I actually don’t need every minute of my waking life, every thought I have and every movement I make documented in some form.
As such:
- I don’t have a MySpace page!
- I’ve never uploaded anything to YouTube!
- I despair at Twitter!
- I pride myself on being ‘Not’ rather than ‘Hot’!
As you can see, I clearly reject everything in the ‘Web 2.0’ sphere.
Er, enjoy the rest of my blog… Oh, and the Micro Mart podcasts are back soon. Perhaps I’d better give up while I’m only several miles behind?
