Re-think……Does technology help?

After yesterday’s ‘war on technology’ session, I’ve had a re-think. Apparently my greycells are knocking me over, telling me that, I’m being a big hypocrite by using technology to write a critique about itself. & whatever happens I ain’t letting my conscience get pricked. It’s the dearest thing to me in the whole universe. So here is the second attempt.

The cell-phone. It may have invaded every moment of our lives, but who why can’t we work around it? There are many ways. For e.g. ‘Reject’ the call, put the ‘Network Selection’ on manual and select the wrong network or the ultimate, switch off the phone. But seriously all this methods would only hurt your conscience and so cannot be adopted. So the verdict is ‘cell-phone is a bane not a boon’.

Next is email. Once again, isn’t it our reckless attitude of typing a few lines and sending it to all and sundry, which causes all the havoc and pain? Just a bit of thought into what goes into an email and addressing it to the correct list of people would be perfect. But then we don’t live in a perfect world do we…and some bloke would definitely reply with questions to the perfectly crafted email. So here again, the verdict is snail mail scores over email.

One big +ve on the side of technology is that things that were accomplished in days earlier are now completed in hours, if not minutes. But if we take a holistic view, aren’t we stepping on a treadmill and running faster and faster, thereby making it more difficult to stop, when we want to.

So my re-think proves to me that, technology definitely does not help us in the long run. Challenge me!!!!!
