iPhone moment

[prog]

From the this is what it's all about files:

While standing in line, I wanted to talk to classicaljunkie, but she wasn't in a position to take phone calls, and I wanted more interactivity (and less cost) than SMS. So I hopped onto the iTunes App Store, downloaded and installed Google Mobile, and a moment later was yakking at her over GTalk. I did all this before shuffling forward a place in line.

I note this less as praise for Google and more as astonishment that I have a mobile device whose functionality I can alter on the fly, through the air, to fit an immediate need. Kuh-crazy.

I admit, as I sit here on the runway at the wrong airport (Denver was stormy for just long enough for us to run low on fuel), that it's tempting to create a Twitter account and grab the client solely to start venting random boredom upon the universe.

Cheyenne. Come for the fuel, stay for the dead grass.
