1. Stop wearing a Bluetooth headset when you're not on the phone. You're just trying too hard to look cool. Besides, Bluetooth headsets are not even remotely new! They're only new to poor CDMA customers (Verizon and Sprint here in the states) because those carriers didn't want you to be able to transfer data without using their network (hint: so they can charge you!) Those on GSM networks have been enjoying Bluetooth headsets for years now, mainly because U.S. carriers can't really control anything because it's a worldwide standard. Seriously, if you're not talking or carrying around two babies and a bag full of groceries, you look like a fucking idiot. Not to mention, you're just needlessly running down the battery. This is like when AOL users were let out onto the net for the first time and went around saying, "Have you heard of this 'new' thing called email?" Oh. Dear. God. Stop.
2. STOP USING THE TERM "Web 2.0." It's idiotic. The web doesn't have huge upgrade points, and if it did, we'd probably be on Web 152.3. The web is constantly evolving over time, and you know it. "Web 2.0" is just overplayed businessspeak. STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT.
That's all... for now. Now someone get me a Coke—STAT.
---We now return you to your regular, boring life... already in progress---

Date: 2005-12-21 01:26 am (UTC)I think blogging now is different enough from what it was when it first started to warrent calling it "Blogging 2.0", don't you?
And email.... sure, the protocols are the same, but the way it is used is soooo different (god, I can't even type that with a straight face) that we should call it "Email 2.0", right?
And how about Christianity? It's sooo different from what was originally intended.... how about "God 2.0"?

Date: 2005-12-20 09:29 pm (UTC)*sigh* i can't help it, it is so convenient that i can still have both hands to do nothing. i mean its great in the car but i notice even at home i don't turn off the earpiece and use it whenever i get a call.
tho for the record, when i am in the store what not i do put the piece in my pocket until my phone rings. usually i don't use a cart but a hand basket and to carry that plus a 12 pack (soda) or water and balance the phone between my head and shouldder, not so cute esp. when it pops out and falls to the ground.

Date: 2005-12-21 12:52 am (UTC)when I catch myself having it my ear for no reason, like when driving or sitting on the couch watching tv (i know wtf?), I immediately take it out until i get a call again.
i wish that those coms that they use on alias that fit into your ear were real or available. that would rock, tho did you catch the episode where Sark (mmmm) came back 2 weeks ago? if not don't worry i will make this unspoilerish. but there was a scene at the end where Rachel was communicating with Syd & Marshall but her earpiece was a bluetooth headset. i was like ummm... what is that about? you are supposed to be super spy not a regular joe!
i'm on a babble. i need to go check my mobile web 2.0

Date: 2005-12-21 05:53 pm (UTC)Yes, I took that pic when the new Sony BT headset came out (it was the first one that tiny). (This was also back when BT headsets were actually new.)
Although, I will add, that Sony headset turned out to be a big POS.
