I saw a t-shirt the other day over at the satirical news site The Onion (www.theonion.com) that read: “Report: 90% of waking hours spent staring at glowing rectangles.” For the rest of the day I felt awkward working on my PC, and I didn’t want to switch on the TV when I got home. I started thinking about maybe going to farm in the Klein Karoo, about staring at far off koppies instead of glowing LCD screens. Then I was reminded about the proposed Eskom price hike and felt better, since pretty soon we’ll only be able to afford to spend 40% of the day looking at glowing rectangles.
We’ve got a pretty smashing issue lined up, with highlights being our first look at Google’s new email-like collaboration tool Wave, and an interview with Matthew Buckland who heads up 20FourLabs, arguably one of the best Internet brains in the country. Enjoy.
