The Next BIG thing...

It has nothing to do with what day it may be, you can not go through a day now without seeing, or being exposed to, what is being claimed as: The Next Big Thing.

This morning, The Fabulous Feathermaye and I sat down here at our desk as we usually do, getting our various settle-in chores done, fetching the water from the well, and all that...


Once ZEAL was downed and coffee was in hand, I looked over and saw feathermaye dabbling around on a new site.  Every three or four minutes she would get excited, say: "Look at this!" and turn her netbook my way to show me an image.


"What is that site, Baby?"


"It's call Pinterest," she said. "It's the next BIG thing."


You should understand that for years feathermaye and Your's Truly have spent our days sitting beside each other, a computer screen, and whatever the "Next big thing" was at any given moment, there in front of us, usually with my sweet wife showing me what's what about one site or another.
  


Generally, I give these things only slight awareness, enough to allow me to come back to it later, when my brain is ready to get around another, Next Big Thing. 



Personally, I find it hard to get all worked-in and comfortable on one site or another(like say: Diggit, or Stumbleupon, or even Twitter), at least effectively--as it ties in with this Blog and my other life interests.  

The constant changes, however, also direct my mind to another issue that seems suddenly obvious when I look askance at our NEXT BIG THING culture: No wonder A.D.D. is spreading--seemingly--like some sort of strange STD that has just popped up on the social horizon.  




How do you find the time to come to terms with all this new...stuff?




More to come in the next issue of "The Next Big Thing"
