Years ago, when landlines were still common and Internet shopping was not, I got a phone call from a policeman, who said he was in Selfridges and did I know where my credit card was? Suppressing the triggered memories of It’s 10 PM. Do...
There was a time when carrying a dedicated music player was the thing to do. The industry was booming, Steve Jobs turned the iPod into a cultural phenomenon, Creative established itself as one of its biggest competitors, and countless...
