Absolute Blue Invitation 11/09/18 - 11/10/18

Absolute Blue Connects

We are all connected. Really, really connected. We are never far from technology. We carry smart devices, drive smart cars, eat smart food, feed smart pets, wear smart clothes. But in the process we are creating volumes of data. Detailing where we go, what we do and how we do it. I myself was able to order Domino’s driving down I95. Sure the pepperoni was cold and I missed my exit, but what a convenience! The problem is that now that Siri knows I like my delivery at 80 miles an hour on the interstate, I am now inundated with offers for Chinese on a side street, Burgers on the causeway or Tacos in a school zone. Let’s face it. Big brother is not only watching, he’s listening. And taking notes. But we had to learn the hard way:

-By not reading his end user license agreement Don is legally required to send copies of each fax he receives to Google for review and archival.

-Due to Skip’s North Carolinian drawl, or perhaps browser history, instead of accessing his genealogy website, Siri connected him to incestry dot com.

-Frequent review of users associated with your social media accounts is critical. After performing a routine audit Kevin found friend requests from Ted Bundy, Bernie Madoff and Harvey Weinstein on his MySpace account.

-Bill’s ‘smart’ house has unknowingly been logging data on each time he turns out the light, one clap at a time.

-Tom was forced to relinquish his iPhone and is now working with a beeper after mistakenly loading an app that not only logged and archived but graded and corrected Texts, then failing to maintain a D minus average. Comments included ‘Horrifically Inane’, ‘Pontifically Trite’ and sometimes simply ‘Dude!’.

Join us for another weekend at Keith’s Oyster Bar at Cocoa Beach Pier from 6 to 10 both Friday and Saturday…
