Technology Related Blog Thing #7

Since this 'assignment' asks us to talk about technology I'm going to take this time to vent a little.

Who else feels a little overwhelmed by the increasing need to be connected? Sometimes I want to be unplugged and anonymous. I actually 'forget' my cell phone regularly so I can feel a little free.

Technology has its obvious benefits, but I believe sometimes its nice to talk face-t0-face and put aside all the gadgets and wires.

Ironically, I started a part-time job at one of the largest most successful electronic stores and I have to be up-to-date on new technology. Funny how the thing that bothers me sometimes now provides extra income.

Wow. Thanks for that rant. You're right about just wanting to disappear for a bit. On the infrequent days when I don't touch a computer, I feel like I've accomplished something.
