Early Adopter or Addict, you decide…

Well according to this article in today’s NYTimes, once again I am on the cutting edge of using technology.

How great is it that more people are exploring and enjoying video games on their computers! They are fun and challenging and good for your brain. Contrary to what is often said about them, they provide opportunities for community and socializing. Enjoy! I sure am.

And in similar news: Being able to install RAM in your computer without trouble or contortions…. great. (thanks Apple for sterling user-friendly design!) Being able to navigate in the World of Warcraft with ease… priceless! Amazing what a chunk of RAM and a new keyboard will do for your gaming pleasure.

I really enjoy online community and always have. What potential it has to bring people together who would never had the opportunity to meet and interact! And what a wonder that all the normal barriers are removed from the equation, or can be: age, race, gender, looks etc. What do they matter? Certainly there are clues along the way, often language hints that indicate age etc but in reality I don’t care if you’re 14 or 40 if you are fun to work with in WoW. If you’re an idiot, likewise it doesn’t matter. But it wouldn’t matter in real life either.
