This why I like Smartphones

In case you haven’t seen it, the iPhone app store allows you to download thousands of apps. Some free, some paid for. I have dozens of apps installed! Some for fun, some for tracking my running, some for business or productivity.

Almost daily I have the ritual of hitting the updates button to check which of my apps have updates. Today 10 of my apps got improvements - either bugs fixed or new features.

Imagine you bought a car with 30 major features. Imagine then installing 20 new features to make it better. Imagine every month you get updates to your car that make it handle better, safer, more comfortable, improve it’s fuel efficiency and so on? Imagine after a year of owning your car it’s now so much better than when you bought it, and it’s totally customised to your exacting needs?

Well, owning a smartphone is like that.

OK, so why the zen bones thing?

About 20 years ago I stumbled upon a book called "Zen Flesh, Zen Bones". Being vegetarian - the "flesh" bit didn't grab me, but the short pithy Zen stories inside it, did.

Ever since then my web nick has been zenbones, my Hotmail, my Gmail address, you name it. It's kinda stuck.

Is the blog about Zen? Nope.
