I was there last year, and that's not a good sign, I'll tell you. Although, if we could be on par with Little Rock in the BBQ category, I'll take the digital dumbness in stride.

The report is not actually about being truly digitally savvy. It's about concentrations of "digitally savvy" CONSUMERS, who may very well be quite gullible. Paying to download ring tones? Right.

This post is dumb. Being an "early adopter" means risking/wasting your money on potentially buggy products that require updates and perhaps recalls. Being an early adopter doesn't guarantee the success of the product. Remember the Apple Newton? Didn't think so. It's more *digitally smart* to invest in a product that has proven reliability and a relatively good support system, don'tchathink? Rather than being lame-ass "oohgottahaveit!" consumerist sheep? Besides, the economy sux0rz for everyone in the country (not just Los Angeles, this blog seems to think all of the problems in the world exist in this city and everything is just fine and dandy once you step out of the area...yeah right), and in this eco-conscious era, you really don't wanna spend your money on something that's just gonna end up as e-waste.
