I agree, and I find myself incapable of doing basic things myself, but not because I only use technology to solve problems. I'm skewing more and more towards old fashioned asking-people-for-help. Where's a good spot for lunch since Chipotle is out of the question? I know, I'll stop in and ask the bank tellers where they recommend! I had a delicious burrito that destroyed Chipotle in taste and quality, and was cheaper to boot!
I don't eschew technology at all, but I'm realizing how little most people appreciate the willingness and capability to help their fellow humans. People will surprise you if you wait long enough!
- samstave 11y agoThat's a fun idea for an app: Post a question and only those geographically within one mile of you can answer. All questions and answers are anon and public. Tag the questions and answers such that I can see all the questions regarding what to eat were within my vicinity.
- tedmiston 11y agoRelated idea: I can't find it, but there was an app that plotted Instagram locations visited by locals vs tourists. Here's something similar but for tweets -- ex. Times Square https://www.mapbox.com/labs/twitter-gnip/locals/#10/40.7591/-73.9852 https://www.mapbox.com/labs/twitter-gnip/locals/#10/40.7591/....
