Modern Times -- Digital Times


Every day, digital data can be stored on smaller and smaller media.
Some day, one will be able to carry around one's life in audiovisual data on a storage medium no larger than a stamp.

A friend of mine digitized an old VHS tape I had into 40 gigs of movie files. Now it fits on my mobile harddisk -- which is bigger and twice as heavy as the VHS tape... When exactly does future start?
