We’re living in the golden age of tech. It’s very boring indeed to write about
I’m one of a relatively small number of people who’ve written about ‘tech’ both before and after the launch of the iPhone.
I also remember a time both before and after mobile phones in general. And the internet. It’s amazing I’m still so youthful and idealistic, really.
I remember the launch of the first iPhone quite distinctly, because we live-blogged it – itself a rather futuristic concept to the T3 office at the time. We barely had a website at that point.
The guy doing said blog appeared to have lost his mind.
“It’s an iPod! It’s a phone! It’s a computer! It’s all three! Oh my God, the humanity! Incredible scenes here! Gooooooooaaaaaaaaaaallllll! Sony Ericsson! Microsoft Windows Mobile! Nokia Symbian! Your boys took one hell of a beating! Apple! Apple! Apple!”
OK, he didn’t say all of that but, boy, was the virtual air thick with high praise and higher excitement.
Of course, back in T3’s London office, we were all sat there going, “Why are you blowing Apple so hard, dude? This thing hasn’t even got 3G, it doesn’t support Adobe Flash, and there’s no pull-out keyboard. Wasssuuuppp?! SunnyD anyone?”
