FoxTrot: Internet attractions

Description

Peter is using the computer while a friend watches. As he is typing, Peter says, "This World Wide Web stuff is pretty cool. I mean, if I wanted to, I could access NASA photos... I could go into the Library of Congress and read historical texts... I could study the art collections of numerous European museums..."

At this point, the friend rolls his eyes toward the ceiling, and comments, "Emphasis on 'if you wanted to.'"

Peter, meanwhile, has made a thrilling discovery. "Ooo - Miss December likes ice cream! Me, too!"

Comments

Probably not what Vannevar Bush had in mind when he envisioned the Memex.
