Deals on big TVs before Super Bowl are less super this year – USATODAY.com – StumbleUpon. Fun interactive chart that shows the size of tvs purchased and the year of purchase. I have always thought it was silly to have such a large TV. Not because of the environmental cost, but because the larger the TV the harder it is to disengage from it. At some point TV size becomes a black hole in which people don’t want to disengage. I would always like to strain a little, so that I remember that playing video games or watching documentaries isn’t the only thing I can do in life.

How to recognize dying industries
I was driving with a friend and I noticed a TV companies van. What really struck me was below the logo and slogan were the words in heavy bold type “We are not hiring.” I didn’t realize they got asked the question so much they needed to put it on their vehicle.
I immediately thought of that old german proverb. “Who is not busy growing is busy dying.” I wonder if stores like Best Buy will have that on their windows now. I used to see that when I shopped at Kmart/Sears in the past. Whats wrong with retail? Can’t they see the writing on the wall? If they don’t offer service, they have no chance to compete on price.
