Thumbnail Views: Via Thumblicio.us SEARCH ANY STORY YOU HEAR ON THE PODCAST Late Adopters - Better Get Ready by Andrew McCaskey The item on late adopters caught my eye - and that’ unusual because I am almost always on the early adopter end of the spectrum. The real shocker was that the subject being interviewed was actually younger than I am by a few years. He was talking about being perfectly happy with dial-up access, AOL and an absurdly old Dell. The issue was the discontinuance of the Netscape browser option at AOL, and a forced migration to Firefox. I have to admit that up until about a year ago I worked daily on a machine that I also had a Netscape install working - just for the quick web editing - I believe called Composer. Add in point number two that just today I was really missing my Palm III’s functionality as I was trying to do something on the iPhone - grab a note - and realized how transparent the Palm III had been with an NT laptop from about eight or ten years ago . Of course, I’d have a rough time reading the monochrome screen - but it’s no too far from the functionality that I need today. Then, there’s Twitter - which I refuse to run, because I can’t stand the constant interruption and flow of trivia. He probably just got there a few years before I will.
