Slowly but surely, the man is trying to cage us in. Make us become reliant on the internet, make us become one with the Matrix, and then WHAM! Skynet and its all over. Oh wait, wrong movie. But the internet is trying to become alot more like real life, take for instance the Shopping cart. You might say, which one Ian? The one in the market, or the one online that I put my virtual representations of goods into to take to the virtual representation of a cash register to... You get the picture. Well, they are actually very alike.
- They both are there to serve you, you tell them what to do and what you want to put into them. Fancy that eh? The cool thing about the virtual one is sometimes, if your lucky, it will make suggestions to you on what else you should buy based on what you have already put in. Crazy...
- You can put whatever you want into it. Its "your" cart after all, use it how you want to. You can even take things out you find you no longer want. The cool thing (Seeing a pattern yet?) about the virtual one is you do not have to go back and find where to put the items you no longer need, because it does not really exist yet... It just disappears into space... Yeah. Sounds cooler if you are as lazy as I am.
- Another nifty thing is that the cart is right there when you come in. Just chilling there waiting to be used, as though you two where fated to be... So romantic. I mean, Useful, yes thats right, useful. And yeah, the cool thing about the Virtual cart is you do not have to push it around the store or return it, it just kinda follows you around, and when you leave it just vanishes. Harsh man, just harsh.
Well thats all for now, remember to always say thank you to the unassuming cart and use it well! It is, after-all there to serve you!
