Now this should be an interesting story…
Wednesday, August 8th, 2007And I mean that in a good way. Not my cynical way of looking at the world either.
Lenore Skenazy, of the New York Sun, is writing a story on “Help, I’m (technologically) stuck in 1998.” I love the title. It definitely caught my attention.
The Profnet query goes like this, “Are you, too? Do you have no idea how to do half the things (like download personalized stamps from the post office) that apparently everyone else finds easier to do than peeling a banana? If so, do you think you’d like a little help? That’s what I’m writing about. I think someone should start offering, “Help, I’m stuck in 1998″ seminars, and go through everything from uploading photos to downloading ringtones. I’m also interested in things like Verizon’s new store, where you can practice downloading music, and Cingular’s class for parents on “how to text message your kids.” I’d love to hear of any other things companies are doing to help those — like me — who are the “Left Behind.”"
If you’re interested in helping Lenore her deadline is 7:00 PM EST today. Her email is lskenazy (at) yahoo.com
