Where were we 7 years ago before the Goog became popular?
Where were we before Mosaic came out?
What did we ever do when we had to look up a phone number or get directions?
I really had forgotten life without internet until yesterday when our connection at the office went out. Yes folks, work slowed down, but surprisingly it didn't come to a screaching halt. Nope, we got stuff done, and when we got blocked on something we had to look up on the big I (an API spec perhaps), we moved on to something else.
Unfortunately as a remote office we tend to rely on being connected to our mothership for quite a few things. I know that my boss is going nutso because he can't get to his email (but he's insane and checks it every minute anyway [Hi Matt!]), and can't IM people. It truly is amazing how much an office--especially a remote technology office--relies on a data connection.
I guess it's time to use the phone. Or maybe find a dialup ISP to use. Ewww...
Let's hope SBC figures out what happened soon. They're losing money on this one.
