Travelling online and elsewhere
My son asked me, this weekend, what is the distance between Newton Aycliff and Durham? “No idea, Google it!” was my reply.
It now takes just moments to research any subject, yet we apparently have less and less free time? Or are we just trying to cram so much more into a working day?
This week I have done a lot of searching on the web putting in simple PR phrases to get a feel for the different opinions on various ideas and issues, and simply trying to find out names, number, anything on potential contacts. Each new search comes up with thousands of pages and it’s mind numbing when you think about how much information is actually at our finger tips. It makes me personally believe that it can’t be such a bad thing that people are reading less and less. I am sure that my son and future generations will have the ability to learn so much more diverse and up-to-date information from all this on-line data.
And my son?…. not only did he find the distance, he found the quickest route, booked and paid for his train tickets and set off on his first solo adventure away from home.
