Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 23rd May, 2018

23rd May, 2018.


Yes: it’s OFFICIAL … !

I’m starting to get requests for name checks!

Now … 

Can I admit to mild nerves?

I’ve actually got an appointment at the dental hygienists, today.

Nerves … when I possibly shouldn’t be nervous: after all, it IS just a clean up.

I also note Amazon is working with two US police forces: to provide them with facial recognition software.

I know there’s privacy concerns.

And finally … ?   I’ve got Radio Four’s Today programme on in the background.

Science fiction fan that I am, I can only be mildly pleased.

I can only hope author, William Gibson, is, too.

He’s the chap that first coined the word …
