Wasn't the future wonderful?

Future Perfect Moments Defined

I was starting to do a quick Google search to see if any other blogs out there had the name "Future Perfect." I didn't get very far before I stumbled on a great-looking blog by Jason Bradbury. Although the blog itself does not bear the name, "Future Perfect," this post contains the phrase. I like how he defines "future perfect moment": "A Future Perfect Moment is an unexpected coming together of technology and folklore; the moment you realise that something you loved in Star Wars is a new function on your mobile phone; it's the times we become aware that we are living in the future." I think that defines in part what this blog will evolve to cover: the coming together of people's dreams of the future, and the reality of technological advances (and you thought it dealt with golf and Victorian literature!).
