Holiday Message for the Informationally Challenged
by Sara Tucker
Because way too many of us are checking our email at least once a day while on vacation (39 percent according to a recent survey); and because a guerilla insurgency is calling for a No Email Day; and because 46 percent of women polled say they'd rather give up sex than the Internet; and because Phoebe Gates gets only 45 minutes and the president of the United States gets zero; and because the news that Daddy Gates had clamped down made headlines around the world; and because Chinese doctors have spoken; and because boot camp is no fun; and because recent Google searches for information overload, information fatigue syndrome, and data smog generated an undigestible number of hits; and because the days leading up to the new year are supposed to be a time of spiritual, mental, and physical renewal . . . the Aggregator has only one word for its readers this week: Peace.
