Technology Etiquette

Yeah, I’m on a pet peeve roll, but that’s the way it goes sometimes.
I love technology as much as the next person, and I shudder to think how much time I spend with my gadgets, but there are times to put the damned gadgets away.  Dining with other humans is the first instance that comes [...]

Not Sure What To Make Of This

Kindle Irony

I am a tech geek, so this interests me. Apparently, there was an issue at Amazon with a publisher “changing their mind” about offering an electronic version of a book that had already been purchased. Ok, so they stop selling the books, right? Only half right. They actually remotely deleted the already purchased books off of their users Kindles and credited the user accounts for the price paid.
