| Life..at your fingertips! |
And then came the Internet. What a glorious day that was. I didn't fully appreciate the "Dear Abby" connection when it first came out, but I am a card carrying member of instant gratification of knowledge (and just about everything else) now!
Imagine, you are sitting in a meeting, lunch, the passenger seat of a car....and a question comes up. No need to say I don't know or I will find out. You go to the appropriate Safari app on your oh so very smart phone and type in the question that needs answering. Low and behold, you will have a plethora of answers from various sources! (Validity optional).
But wait...there's more. Did you forget it was your best friend's birthday and are in need of a gift? No longer are you just limited to ordering flowers or perhaps some cookies (though cookies are good). Click open that same app and if you are like me, it will open on Google. Type in Amazon and begin shopping for gift cards delivered via email within seconds of purchase.
Do you hate crowds like I do? With Christmas right around the corner, get those gifts ordered and delivered to your own home or the recipients. You make the call. You can even have them gift wrapped. No standing in line involved.
Want to go out to dinner tonight since you haven't been to the store? Pull up the smart app for reservations and pick a time. Check the menu while you are "on-site" to make sure you want to eat what they are serving. Don't feel like going out...or going to the store? Time to grab that smart phone again and have groceries ordered for pick-up or delivery.
Feel like watching a movie or read a book while you wait (forever) to renew your driver's license? Time to click on Netflix or Kindle and have movies and books literally at your fingertips. See something you like? Feel free to have instant gratification as you download your latest purchase. If you just want to reserve a seat at the movies and grab a bite of supper there, time to go on line and buy your ticket for the showtime of your choice. Your reserved seat is waiting.
And to get back to the driver's license. If this is just a simple renewal, did you know it can be accomplished ON-LINE???
I haven't even touched on my Outlook calendar that runs my life, Yahtzee and all the social media available. With all that, if we didn't have to work to pay the bills we are generating, we might never leave the house.
Until next time,
