Please sing to the tune of Ben E. King’s Stand By Me…

When the night has come,
And the offline world is dark,
And the computer screen is the only light we’ll see,
No I won’t be bored, no I won’t be bored,
Just as long as you stand, stand by me…

And darlin’, darlin’, stand by me, oh now now stand by me,
Stand by me, stand by me,

If the real world that we look upon,
Should tumble and fall,
And all the non-virtual foundations should crumble to the sea,
I won’t cry, I won’t cry, no I won’t shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlin’, darlin’, stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah

Whenever you’re in trouble won’t you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Darlin’, darlin’, stand by me-e, stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me.

At a time when Email usage skyrocketed in mobiles, pioneer Blackberry would tank.

When the smartphone boom happened, pioneer Nokia would fall by the wayside.

When global digital camera sales soared, pioneer Kodak would go bankrupt.

In the era of the ubiquitous MP3 player, pioneer Sony of the Walkman would lag way behind.

Apple beat Microsoft to most of the innovations and yet the latter had the PC monopoly.

IBM would enter the computer business and gain heights; exit the PC business and go even higher.

Facebook would be the first to get 1 billion users in anything.
