the convenience of doing things at the touch of your fingertips



Remember how we used to do things, how much we tire to go to places just to accomplish our errands without discounting the time factor. People hurrying during the rush hour to get in at their offices on time, knocking on banks at 3pm just to pay their bills or transfer money to avoid overdrafts, and everyone crowding the malls from one shop to another-- such have been normal society scenes we witness in our day to day lives.

Times have change. Just when internet has became household names, people can now comfortably stay home while doing everything at their fingertips. Online shopping has became a fad, playing at the stock market has become easy to monitor, banking has been on a 24-hour service without beating banking hours, paying bills can be done at the touch of a button, even earning for a living has become possible without leaving the comforts of your home. How technology really evolved, and everything can happen at the disposal of your hands. Even the world tend to become smaller with the rise of social networking sites and instant messages. It has become so possible for one to reconnect old fellows who have gone to the other part of the world, or get updated with what your favorite celebrity is doing or even having on his thoughts. Encyclopedias have become passe with wikipedia and other search engines, books have slowly gained unpopularity with e-books available online.

The world has pretty much gone so convenient to live on. Comfort has been on its best shape and use more than ever, ready to embrace each working individual. The world wide web has become man's best buddy, the go-to-guy, the virtual assistant. It is up to one person how far can he allow this comfort and convenience to navigate in his daily routine.
