Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2011-06-05]: Google announced that its products (Gmail, Google Calendar, Talk, Docs, etc) will not be compatible with old versions of Internet browsers [source: BBC News]. Technology progresses rapidly and is often difficult to follow its evolution. And perhaps this is what differentiates it from humans, whose passions, weaknesses and greatness is based on concepts that remain constant. Love, hate, envy, altruism (not the Dawkins type altruism) of a human in modern Athens of 2011 could easily be matched with love, hate, arrogance and gratitude of a 300 B.C. human… So try using a Commodore! Or grab a piece of paper and write a letter with the old traditional way! It is nice to remember the basic principles sometimes…
