My new phone has a joystick. O.o Look here. See that thing on the keypad that looks sort of like an electric eye? Joystick. Weird.

This was an exchange with a friend of mine earlier today. We're both librarian-type people and send each other nifty news snippets of the sort.

Me:

Bookmobiles in Africa ... that prints out and binds books instead of loaning them.

That's pretty cool! I had some friends at UNC who volunteered with an organization that help set up rural libraries in Africa. They had a donkey-pulled bookmobile that carried a satellite dish and had wireless Internet access. :)

Me:

I love living in a world where you can have a donkey equipped with Wi-Fi. XD

That makes me want to cause someone to say, "Wi-Fi, my ass!" so that I can say, "Well, actually..." :)
