Getting park news the slow way…

Decisions, decisions. Should I watch a 26 minute video to get a dozen news tidbits, or glance at a website and read all that news and more in just a minute?

We are in a world where, on one hand, we have more time due to all the technology around us — washing machines, dishwashers, robot vacuums, and so on. Remember hand writing? Now we type and print a full page faster than we could have written out a post card.

Yet, theme park news has migrated to a slow, inefficient form. Video is great if you get to see moving video of something being described … but when it’s 90% on somebody’s face just talking to you, with occasional still photos popping up, some of the precious time technology has gained you has now been stolen by the same technology.

Maybe I should make a 26 minute video to rant about that…
