| That's a cute little phone, but - try as I might - I can't see what | I'd do with it. Searching my memory, I can't think of a single | instance in recent months where I would have liked to have a smart | phone. | | So you do carry a dedicated navigation system with you all | the time, and never had the need to kill time waiting by e.g. | browsing news or photos, nor ever had to look up a number, an | address or a description of a thing or procedure or find a | doctor or usable eating place while outside town? | I was on the Boston subway yesterday, watching perhaps 1/2 the people diddle their tech. In general it seemed to be one of two things: listening to music with earplugs or checking Facebook over and over. It's what young mothers refer to as a "pacifier" -- something to suck on in order to dull anxiety in an undisciplined mind. Unfortunately, a toddler (of any age) with a very entertaining, multi-media pacifier is going to have a very hard time getting weaned off of it. One becomes a slave to diddling, unconsciously convinced that mere boredom is a dangerous bogieman that must be avoided, lest one suffer some dire but undefined fate. I'm not anti-tech. I write software and do web design on the side. And I'm not against cellphones. I have a Tracphone in case I need to make a call. On the other hand, I have maps in my truck and a small notebook when I need to write things down. I read news online and in a newspaper. I don't need to have the latest "breaking news" while I'm waiting at a red light or sitting in a dentist's waiting room. And I certainly don't need to spend upward of $100/month for that. If one actually relates to here and now, it turns out that it doesn't particularly require chocolate sauce and sprinkles. One doesn't actually need to find a device to kill the time just because the mobile over one's crib has stopped spinning. Funny how people try so hard to "kill time" or "pass the time" .....whenever we're not busy frantically worried about not having enough time. |

I'm not anti-tech. yes you are, but a more appropriate description is you're anti-progress. I write software and do web design on the side. for legacy hardware and legacy operating systems. you aren't writing apps for mobile devices. that much is clear. And I'm not against cellphones. I have a Tracphone in case I need to make a call. i don't think you realize just how funny that is. On the other hand, I have maps in my truck and a small notebook when I need to write things down. paper maps are not as up to date and much harder to use while driving. or are you one of those idiots who unfolds a map while trying to steer? I read news online and in a newspaper. I don't need to have the latest "breaking news" while I'm waiting at a red light or sitting in a dentist's waiting room. And I certainly don't need to spend upward of $100/month for that. there's no need to spend $100/mo. you are so full of misinformation, it's crazy.

No. I could easily see everyone around me. I'm not sure if it was Facebook. I wasn't close enough to read, but I could see that nearly everyone was scrolling through a similar list of rectangles with icons on the left and small amounts of text. I'm guessing that was probably their Facebook "wall". |

I am, so I agree with this post. I'm 57. I know lots of older people who are addicted to smartphones. (And of course there's Wolfgang.) But I know what you mean. Younger people have grown up with cellphones and texting, and younger people like as much peer feedback as possible. It must be very hard to resist being in constant contact with one's buddies. But I worry about them. They have almost no experience of actual solitude, or formless time, or self-reliance. Their world is an abstraction, more wired than physical. One can see it walking down city streets. People seem to be getting more rude and inconsiderate, but I don't think that's actually what's happening. Rather, cellphone addicts are radically separated from their own physical environment. They're not where they are, and actually don't regard their physical location as relevant. ...At least not until they get hit by a truck. I have a blind friend who complains that in recent years he's had an increasing problem with people walking into him. And it's not just hitting his elbow as they walk by. It's full-speed, head-on collision. |

It's full-speed, head-on collision. We are starting to see a backlash against that: Quiet cars in the commuter trains; people telling the loud chatters to shut up. I and many others, have zero interest in the details of somebody's latest affair. Evn though I am semi-retired, I like to use my quiet time to wind down. Though I freely admit, that I will look at my images, to see how I may improve them, during "down time." -- PeterN |
