Neither Here Nor There

June 21st

Also, there are pictures of Shannon’s preschool ESL class here.

This post on Jason Kottke’s weblog kind of sums up some things I’ve been thinking about lately: How much the internet, or the web, amazes me.

Everytime I think about some of the services that the internet can provide, it amazes me: package tracking and instant messaging to name a few. Online shopping, too. I was thinking the other day about the amount of information I take for granted these days, I wouldn’t know where to find things without the internet. What did people do just ten years ago? What did I do? The other day I needed to find out where the area code 847 was. I found out in about 3 seconds. What else would I do…go to the library?

Also, I just noticed that Amazon is giving free shipping when you buy two cds. I think I’ll have to take them up on that.
