Bulletin Board: What Topics Should the ‘Tech We’re Using’ Column Tackle Next?


READ MORE

I’ve loved reading about how our restaurant critic, who tries to stay unrecognized in restaurants, blends in with other diners by snapping photos of his food just like everyone else does in the Instagram era. I found it incredibly useful for readers to hear what our Frugal Traveler columnist packs when he travels on a budget.


Especially insightful is when Times staff members talk about how tech has changed the industries or topics they cover; if I had to pick a favorite, our Modern Love editor’s thoughts about how tech has transformed dating and romance was a treat on Valentine’s Day.


And sometimes, it’s just plain interesting to hear that our India correspondent relies on air purifiers to endure the pollution in Mumbai, or that our Japan correspondent has to send interview requests with a fax machine.


After doing many of these interviews, my takeaway is that the smartphone and computer are still the most vital tools for people to do work.



In none of these interviews was there ever a hint that the tablet would replace the personal computer for doing serious work, like Apple and others have predicted. Maybe that will happen someday, but it doesn’t appear that it will anytime soon.


Having done these interviews for a while now, I’m eager to hear from readers what else they would like to learn about our staff. What do you like about the column, and what could be better? And do you have any requests for people we have not featured yet? We’re all ears.
