It’s not that I don’t trust technology it’s just that most of the time I don’t understand it. It’s the pace of change that gets to me. Just when I think I’ve mastered one thing it moves on and I find myself running after it like I’m chasing some ever accelerating bus, no matter how close I get to it’s always pulling away and nobody seems to have the time table. I’ve decided that I’ll never use a GPS on the hill, not because they aren’t great little devices and would be really handy at times but because I spend so much time in front of one kind of screen or another I just want somewhere in my life that I don’t have to watch some flickering little screen or reboot it every now and again.
That doesn’t make me a technophobe, or maybe it does, I still use technology and I take my little Nexus 7 tablet into bothies so, if I’m there alone, I can watch a movie. This harmless little pass time has brought me much approbation, as if it’s somehow immoral or unethical. I think there’s a place for technology, it allows us to do amazing things, it’s getting the balance right that’s the trick, we shouldn’t let it take over.
