Instance message, text messaging, and most recently Twitter.

What exactly can one say of any substance via these means? I am not saying that these forms of communication may not have an appropriate time and place. I can see a quick communication stating you will be five minutes late as an appropriate form of communication.

Having said that it is time we get real here. I would venture that 99% of the collective communication we make via these trivial forms is indeed trivial and unnecessary. I would also contend that these forms of communication serve to undermine other serious forms of communication.

How many times have you been in a room listening to people cell phones beeping with incoming text messages of earth shattering importance?

***ru there***

Congressman Twittering during legislative sessions, when they should be taking care of our national business. People twittering and texting during meetings. It is called Twit for a reason :-) …

Oh, you are just not being current with the times.

BULLSHIT!

These forms of communication may have a very limited place and time, but for the most part are about as socially important and relevant as the Pet Rock and Smile Button. No, let me take that back, they are less important.

And, unlike the Pet Rock and Smile Button they are doing great harm to the social fabric of our world.

LOL

OMG

Digital Scumbags

I am not sure who is worse, spammers or the idiots that write viruses, tojans, worms, and other type of malicious programs.

I just spent hours fighting my sisters computer, a great way to spend the holiday season. There is a program named “Spyware Guard 2008″ and “Spyware Guard 2009″  that cloaks itself as a sypware eliminator. It is actually quite a sophisticated program that has the capacity of wreaking havoc on your computer as well as stealing personal information and passwords pertaining to ecommerce activities you engage in.

What is sad is that the people that spend their time writing this crap are typically pretty intelligent. Why they choose to spend their time in this type of activity is beyond me. It is also sad that international laws do not exist to deal with these dirtbags.

Most of us use computers. My experience has been that most people using computers believe that anti-virus software is enough to protect themselves. They do not realize how easy it is to have rogue programs installed on their computer through normal internet browsing, and even from opening their email.

BEWARE.
