Facebook may show up as a smaller contribution to GDP than a nationwide chain of movie theaters, but so what? If you’d rather spend four hours a week on Facebook than fours a week going to movies, then Facebook has improved your life as much as movie theaters improved your grandparents’. If you prefer Farmville to a week in Hawaii, then Zynga has improved your life as much as the 707 improved your parents’.
Why the Future Is Brighter Than You Think
Is he serious?
And if this is true — if people really think Farmville is better than a trip to Hawaii — then we have produced a nation of clueless tools. A conclusion I’m biased to believe anyway. Which is great for Facebook, I guess. People who use it regularly are supposed to have lower IQs.
Anyway, this relativist crap really burns my buns.
