Today is my birthday and I decided to reflect on how the world has changed since I came into it. Anyone remember metal roller skates? Man, I lived in those things. Or staying out from daybreak to waaaay past sunset and never having your parents worry? The advent of cable TV, Atari, moon boots and parachute pants. Wow, those were the days.
However, I must admit I don’t really miss them all that much (except Disco. Rock on, Bee Gees!) I have succumbed to the power of now. RIGHT NOW.
I love being able to wait until the absolute last second to buy tickets for the movies from the comfort of my home. They’re ready when I get there. Online not in line. Paying bills, getting instant news, talking with friends and family in France. The entire world is literally at my fingertips.
In fact, I do so much online stuff that it’s dizzying. But not until recently did I realize the dangers inherent in said online computing. I’m an honest person. I don’t understand the thrill of messing up someone’s life. But it happens.
Fortunately, advances have come along to help stop these guys in their tracks. Things like Norton, McAfee, etc. But my very favorite is all about the NOW. There’s a company called PCWEBDoc who can fix just about anything you need them to on your computer including slow start up, email problems, finding and eradicating viruses, fixing your drivers and darn near everything else. The coolest thing is that you don’t have to schlep your computer to any store to do it -- it’s all online! You sit there while they log on, diagnose your problem and tell you what needs to be fixed. Even better, estimates are free and services are totally reasonable.
I love my computer. Don’t know where I’d be without it. I think of PCWEBDoc as health insurance for my computer. These guys work wonders! RIGHT NOW!!
