Just saw this commercial for Google Chrome and Angry Birds on television:
“It’s a simple metric….”
“Are you angry, Peter? You look angry….”
I use Google Chrome (beta) almost exclusively and have since shortly after it was launched. It’s come a long way, especially in the last year. I rarely use IE or Firefox anymore, and even then just to do a browser check when I’m toying with web page changes.
I played Angry Birds once on my iPhone … for about five hours. Then I removed it.
Not that is wasn’t fun … it WAS fun … but the time I spent with it seemed to qualify as “lost time” ….
“Games of that sort are designed to grab your attention…. But apart from a few isolated images, or a little thrill of achievement when you scored points, you come away with no memories. It is as though a black hole had swallowed up this piece of your life.” – Stefan Klein, The Secret Pulse of Time
