    Default The future is awesome

    100,000 issues of the new Esquire magazine have a cover made with E Ink. E Ink is awesome.

    Just don't read the standard idiotic YouTube comments. Those people have no place in the future.

    So what things about living in the future do you love?

    "I remember when I was a kid...." Then talk about how slow the computers were, and how we actually had to hold our mobile phones.

    E-ink thing is pretty cool. Now we'll have internet popup quality flash ads in our magazines, except now we have to turn the page instead of clicking X.

    I dread the day technology passes me by. I don't want to be a useless old man, but it seems inevitable

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
