“To kids today, the Internet is what rock ‘n’ roll was to another generation and TV was to the one before that and swing dancing was to the one before that,” Paul Boutin, contributing editor for Wired magazine, said in a FoxNews article, “Evangelism Catches Up with the Times”.
Somehow the image of sitting in front of a computer late at night, surfing across sites or pondering the next expansion of my own web site seems strantely akin to a kid cradling a guitar and creating some noise.
Geekdom cometh.
And the geek shall inherit the Earth.
You know, after actually reading that article, I’m reminded of how glad I am that I’m a web developer. I mean, this stuff is seriously handy! The internet is just coming into it’s 2nd boom (although it will be categorically different from the first) and it’s really nice to speak that language and be able to publish in that world.
I loved this quote from the article (said by a guy from Wired magazine): “I really think that if Jesus were around today, he would have a blog.”
Amen, brother! :-)
