{"product_id":"present-shock-when-everything-happens-now","title":"Present Shock: When Everything Happens Now","description":"People spent the twentieth century obsessed with the future. We created technologies that would help connect us faster, gather news, map the planet, and compile knowledge. We strove for an instantaneous network where time and space could be compressed. Well, the future's arrived. We live in a continuous now enabled by Twitter, email, and a so-called real-time technological shift. Yet this \"now\" is an elusive goal that we can never quite reach.
