Today R & I officially became a CWBB. What the hell is that I hear you ask? Well it’s a Couple With BroadBand. I’ve noticed this as an emerging and ever increasing trend amongst my Irish friends. CWBB’s generally have
- A high degree of shared computer literacy
- Demanding jobs where one or both often work from home
- A love of textual communication be it SMS, IM or email
- laptop computers which are dragged throughout the house so they can surf whenever and wherever
- A strong and growing appreciation of the joys of constant digital connectedness
- A quirky yet often healthy tendency to communicate complex thoughts and emotions with eachother using web based communication such as blogs/IM/email… (even when they’re in the same house/room)
Other CPWB’s that I know include Bernie/Belene of running with bulls fame and my good friends Kristian/Cath.
