The Blackberry Outage

Posted by Eric at 5:47 pm | Category: News, Technology

I find it really hilarious that an outage of the Blackberry email network for a dozen hours or so at night warrants widespread coverage in the media.

I understand that Blackberries are really addictive; I myself can get addicted to information sometimes (what with my 100+ news feeds that I follow), but this is a little ridiculous. Most of it didn’t even happen during normal North American business hours. I can step away from the computer (though it does take some coaxing, occasionally). Can’t they?

    I’m pretty sure the next day was overly productive due to how much extra sleep all those people got.
