if i see a URL on the bottom of my TV screen or on the side of a bus, i
cant remember much more than foobar.com or fizhot.net, and i know to
prepend "http://www." to anything.
i think people always evolve things this way, at least at first. remember
the phone numbers used to be BAkersfield9-4455 as a memory device. this is
a different device, but the fact that we dont use it anymore, that we are
"trained" as kids to recall 7 digits while older generations needed a
memory device is interesting.
