An alert reader brought a new Facebook “app” to my attention.. which kind of turns a few conventions on their head. And I found it interesting (and “food for thought”).

Of course, the trend towards a currency-less society is gathering steam, and there is big competition now for figuring out just how online payments/currency is going to shape up. (You might have heard the term “micro-payments“..) Who needs a wallet? You’ve got a phone! Interesting.
Yes, we live in interesting times…

• About Tech Paul
I am a Retired computer & network technician. I used to think the machines were pretty cool. Now I don’t.
They’re anything but.
I regularly posted how-to’s and tricks & tips and general computing advice here starting in 2007. (Use the Search tool to find answers. But be aware, many are rather dated.) Sometimes I answered (your) specific questions in an article if I believed the answer was generally helpful to “everyone”. All the writing you see was my own, typos and all. There always is/was an implied “IMHO” in what you see here.
