Years ago I thought mobile Internet didn’t add anything to my life. I bought a smartphone but was skeptical.
Then one day I was at the airport waiting in a long check-in line. I got out my Motorola Droid, dug though my email, checked in to the flight, and got out of the line.
After that I was convinced of the value of it, and I’m reminded every time I’m standing on the street, waiting for an Uber rather than looking around for a cab.
- vundercind 2y agoI was a long-time holdout on getting a smartphone at all, then on really embracing it. Now I gotta admit, it’s the only computing device I use that really delivers ROI for my everyday life (aside from my work computer, for… work, but that’s not mine). All the rest could vanish and it’d mostly just give me fewer ways to frustratingly waste my time. Phone dies, and I gotta replace it ASAP. Everything important happens on there. A compact sensor package glued to good touchscreen, with an Internet connection, is just too useful.
