Don’t worry, wifi

I was late for a meeting last week, and began to run to arrive as soon as possible. Then I remembered that the meeting was happening in a Wifi enabled place, and that my interlocutor had a laptop.

When I arrived he was working on his emails, and didn’t lose a single minute despite the delay. Lesson of the day: the level of worry one should put in being late depends on wifi access. Will the pervasiveness of our offices mean that being on time won’t matter as much as before?
