When all our electronic devices are networked together and communicating, will all our clocks be perfectly in sync, down to the millisecond? Will that be odd having all of us on exactly the same time, albeit in our own time zones? When it’s five seconds after the hour in Peoria on Jill’s PDA, it will be five seconds after the hour in Honolulu on Jack’s microwave oven. No more “Am I late? My watch must be running slow.” And maybe my VCR can start taping when the network thinks it’s time to start a show. What about all those chronically late people who set their watches fast in hopes of tricking themselves into arriving on time (does that really work?). And will there be those independent types who refuse to buy networked watches and stubbornly keep their own version of time?
