Pinterest Reinvents Itself to Prove It’s Really Worth Billions

Well it's interesting to learn that my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 are 'antiquated' pieces of technology. I figured my dad's 1940s Harley fit that bill but apparently it's not the only one.

At least they're trying to do something about marginally older devices, a large proportion of sites I visit at the moment seem to expect an up-to-the-minute change in hardware of everyone viewing them which is frankly insane and that's just web pages.

I was cleaning the house last night and found that my kids are using the iPad 2 that I bought them as a coaster.

I'm not sure what to think of that: Either I'm spoiling them or it is just a great time to be alive.

Sounds like a failure of imagination. There are all sorts of interesting things you can do with an 'obsolete' iPad, even if just to use it as a wifi kiosk for something else.

My kids use their iPad 1 every day for youtube and games.
