Welcome to the Melrose Place Update, and in particular, to the second season premiere episode. Despite Justice Department allegations that the Melrose Place Update resorts to monopolistic trading practices to unfairly compete in the marketplace, we are committed to provide you with the finest in thoughtful commentary. So long as Melrose Place soils the airwaves of America, rest assured that the Update will continue to broadcast in crystal-clear stereo.
Technology is a wonderfully overused word that means absolutely nothing.
The goal of technology is to improve the quality of life, primarily, and regrettably, for those who can afford it. The fundamental problem with technology is that it rarely recognizes its ultimate user or its ultimate task. Too often it is a set of disparate tools and features with nary a thought given to how those tools will integrate. Since the process behind a task shapes and defines the task, the process design is critical. Technology is not a toy, but an energy we need to understand and consciously define, so as not to be defined by it.
