Life in the digital era

Living in the digital era or may I say the "Age of Internet" somehow is very amusing and simple.

Feels hungry? just go surf the internet and order some food online! you can customize your food as you like then they will deliver it right in front of your door. Want to buy some groceries but too lazy to go to your nearest supermarket? again you can order online without a hazzle. Same goes for cars, house and hookers (OOPS!).

As I travel through the vast array of internet content. One thing is always and probably will always be the same. The needs to supply and memorize the USERNAME and PASSWORD.

Agree? everyone with me?

Try this, everyone has at least one e-mail address; okay maybe two. Each with their individual username and maybe password. Your work e-mail, your personal e-mail add your facebook account, twitter account, myspace account your previous food account, supermarket account, ebay account, online shopping account, Paypal account, online banking account. Okay you can make every accounts has exactly the same password and username but yeah as a person who lives in the way of IT. I totally wouldn't recommend that.

IT really is a pain in the ass!

I know its for security reason, I know its a way of monitoring the traffic and active user by the web admin. I know we can always store our login credentials in our browser.

But again security measure prevents all the simplicity.

Conclusion

• Simplicity can't work coherently with security.
• Digital era may simplified some part of our way living but somehow add burdens in another departments.
• Can we finally see the end of the tunnel where everything stated as Simple, and simple is what we really have?
