No, but might as well be …

I would say blogging technology is like a human being in his or her mid-forties: mature, established, still able to contribute to society, but decidedly less attractive compared to a certain twenty-year old. (No prizes for guessing who that twenty-year old is.)

… is that you’ll no longer be able to access your email, Facebook, Twitter, and online banking accounts.

Unless, of course, you had clicked “Stay signed in”!

But then you won’t be able to login to your PC as you don’t know the password.

We can imagine Jason Bourne going through hand-to-hand combat, high speed car chases, shootings and explosions, and finally he reaches his former trainer. He puts a gun to Hirsch’s head.

Bourne: What’s my Facebook password? Tell me now!
Dr. Albert Hirsch: b0urne123! Zero for the “o”.

I’ve been watching a bit more Astro than I usually do these past few weeks. A few questions come to mind:

1. Is there an episode of Mr. Bean that I haven’t seen, like, 10 times?
2. Will the scriptwriters of The Simpsons ever run out of ideas?
3. What is the point of Life After People? By definition, why should we even care?
4. (Wall-E was shown on the Disney Channel recently) How do we know that EVE is female? But she unmistakeably is one, isn’t she?
5. Am I the only one who’s bored with reality shows, and who wishes that outlandish car chase sequences with “teba-bo” explosions would make a comeback soon? (While we’re on the subject, Mack trucks ploughing through roadblocks would be also be nice! But cops on motorbikes in tight uniforms should remain tucked away in the past, thanks.)

Strip away your health, your wealth, your family, your friends, your network, your high IQ (if applicable), your knowledge, your qualifications, your job title – what’s left?

All the unread mails in your inbox, of course.
