It does seem to be a completely mad use of technology. I wish I'd been present at some of the early project meetings.

There was certainly a period in the 90s when both politicians and marketing people seemed to become obsessed with 'digital' as a concept, without any understanding of what it meant or whether it was appropriate. Didn't Dixons rebrand its shops as 'Currys Digital' for a time?
