How do We React to New Technology?

Back in those days where
dusty tomes in libraries were the main storehouse of information,
back in those days where
the main mode of communication was
by call or snail mail -

that was the status quo.

No one could envision a reality
apart from that.

If you had told the people back then
that the world's storehouse of information
can be accessed with a click of a finger
(just Google it!),
and that they can send free text messages
instantly received by another party
thousand of miles away
(Whatsapp/Telegram me okay!),
they might have laughed at you.

"Well, that's hard to imagine,"
they might chuckle, hiding an amused smile.

We are not any different.

Try telling someone, anyone,
about the blockchain.
Try telling them about Bitcoin and Ethereum -
and the technology's revolutionary power.
Try telling them instead of posting on Facebook/Instagram,
post on Steemit and they will be rewarded.

"Well, that's hard to imagine,"
they might chuckle, hiding an amused smile.
