Microsize me
The world is getting smaller.
- AT&T's got a Femtocell called a "MicroCell"
- PayPal is an example of a "micropayment" service
- Microformats are becoming increasingly popular to add more metadata into websites, mainly for richer machine processing
- MicroATX is one of many small form factors. However, not as small as Nano-ITX, Mini-ITX
- Twitter is the world's most popular "Microblogging" service
- Need to clean something fragile? Microfiber cloths are typically used to clean luxury cars, computer parts, screens, etc.
- Those small tweaks to squeeze out a little bit more performance? Micro-optimizations can be useful or can be a pain. It's up to you to decide what is worth it or not.
In this world of larger cars, larger boats, larger cruise ships, larger meals, just remember this - a lot of things are getting smaller. Typically technology... but I threw in another couple terms I seem to say often.
Update:
I forgot, microexpressions, now being made a household name thanks to the TV show "Lie to Me" (highly recommended show, btw.)
