Shira Ovide sent out an interesting article. Shira writes a technology column for the NY Times. It is not a deeply technical article about software or the newest tech devices, but more a “big picture” view of things technical going on in the world. Her post today looks at what we think we know – that ain’t necessarily so. Some curious factoids:
- Americans spend about two-thirds of their TV time watching conventional television and just 6 percent streaming Netflix.
- Online shopping accounts for less than 14 percent of all the stuff that Americans buy.
- Remote work is a hot topic these days, but only about one in six U.S. employees are working that way.
- About 6 percent of Americans order from the most popular restaurant delivery company in the United States.
