Welcome to the new, improved TechnoCursed.com Check in often for the latest stories, essays, headlines, links, and more about the lighter side of technology. Wait -- you mean you didn't know there was one? Read on.... No matter how many reruns Don Kelley watches, Jerry and his gang remain chained to antiquated, late 20th century technology. If this aspect of the Seinfeld phenomenon is dated, can--gasp--the show's humor be far behind? John Walsh cannot seem to get his dome lights to work -- ever. It may be linked to a family curse, or perhaps it's because he is simply too much like the fabled Maui grasshopper. Be wary of how much information is out there for you -- or others with far worse intentions than Marilyn D. Davis -- to find. Very wary. Despite the Web site name to the contrary, Marilyn D. Davis believes it is possible to be TechnoBlessed. But every techno-silver lining has its cloud. Steve Fay is having dial-up problems, phone company problems, computer cabling problems--let's just say he's a poor guy with more than his share of techno-problems. Empathize, please. Everybody complains about e-mail spam, but how many of us do anything about it? Marilyn D. Davis was so inspired by John Sheirer's Alien Anthropologists piece that she decided to study the subject in depth. Beware: It's not a pretty--or tasty--picture. An enlightening--and equally frightening!--essay exploring the notion of how our culture might be viewed if all that remained of our way of life was a week's worth of e-mail messages in John Sheirer's in-box. If you can't trust your microwave oven or your toilet as far as you can throw them, what can you trust? Brendon M. Marks, one of our favorite techno-critics, examines these questions, among others. A customer support letter from Screw-You Cable company did not get the best reception from customer Sandy Siegel. Find out why. For a guy who does do Windows, B.G. still needs to be on top of de-glitching a system that made him the billionaire we've all come to know and love. Read Don Kelley's tell-all letter to the Chairman. Depending on your perspective, voicemail is either the greatest thing since individually wrapped slices of peanut butter and jelly OR an annoyance that violates the terms of the Geneva Convention. At the tone, Marilyn D. Davis says, "Caller: Beware." When a writer's web identity somehow gets tangled up in porn, is there any hope of a return to innocence? Beverly C. Lucey wants--and needs--to know. Bill Harper takes a comprehensive and humourous(sic) look at the joys and sorrows of living in a world where it's become fashionable to change our cell phones as often as our underwear. Naked writers online? Yes, they're real. Yes, you can see them for free. Yes, Marilyn D. Davis wants more; find out why. (With copious thanks to Naked Novelist Carol Muskoron.) |
