My Gosh! This guy went on for 7 pages and all he really ended up saying was "Technology makes it harder to be truly alone and that might be a bad thing." Has anyone ever suggested the death of the print industry might be related to the fact that they go on for ages and say very little? Yeeesh. As far as his point I don’t think it holds much weight. He makes it sound like this is some kind of societal problem that individuals can’t do anything about. But the reality is it’s an issue of individual self control. If you want to be alone than you should turn off the Blackberry. You being alone is simply a function of you making the choice to be alone. It doesn’t matter what the rest of the world does. There are legitimate problems that are caused by the doors that technology opens but this just isn’t one of them.
