re <<socio-tech-media>>
should stop w/ the social-tech-media meme
i watched a 65+ years young person watching some tv program about some facial cream
the screen displayed some qr code on the side
the young person aimed her phone, clicked to capture the qr, was directed to wherever, clicked another time to buy the book, and clicked one more time to confirm payment, and the next day the book arrived at her desk
three clicks, in less than 5 minutes, and presto done deal
facebook, amazon, google? forget about them
tencent, alibaba copiers, i guess you would say
but when jack visited finland in the summer, my wife paid her hotel bill by alipay
obor connectivity is rolling out across the continents wonderfully, and once quantum-enabled, and linked to commercial and investment and private banking, and enhanced w/ RMB returning sovereign crypto currency - oh whoa
some copying
gotta to love it all |
