I read this week that 48 million Amercians use broadband internet access at home. That's an impressive jump. I've been using DSL here in Northern California since 1999 or so and I can't imagine going back to dial up.
However it seems like the big problem we all have is not the last mile, but the last inch. That is, how do we work these devices and services that are coming at us, how do we bridge that last inch between our finger and the button we're about to push?
How do we configure, how do we connect, how do we fix?
Without bridging that last inch we'll just be swimming in information and our music and our pictures and our movies and all of those cool ways to communicate and create will sit suffed on various boxes in various rooms, devices and cars.
Bummer!
