The Shrinking Daily

Our attention span is decreasing. Where once the news was only daily in the cities now you can live in the smallest and most remote village and the news is daily, hourly and even less. You can have it served up by the minute and by the second and daily becomes not enough.

Where once there were monthly magazines we now hunger for more, weekly newspapers are out of time before they even hit the front door and the delivery boy is wasting his time for we have our daily news every day and every split second of the day and suddenly the world is too fast and we all want to get off.
