Personal blog for Matt Burris, and home to 2,748 mashups!
Something that has been at the back of our minds for years; do the things you own intentionally break down after a set period of time? Did that DVD player you just bought have a destruction time tuned to December 24th, 2004? Are certain parts of your car designed to tear down after a couple of years? Do manufacturers deliberately create products to not last long, so you’d have to buy a new one, thus increasing profits? This is called planned obsolescence, and it’s very real.
Share book reviews and ratings with Matt, and even join a book club on Goodreads.
