Those Little Devices...

As much as I love using all those electronic items - smart phones, iPad, notebook and desktop computers, Microsoft Sync in the car, Bluetooth, etc... on thing I am starting to notice is that human interaction and the greatest gadget around (the human brain) isn't being used as much.

If you thought "The Borg" was just some science fiction from Star Trek, think about it.  We are becoming more and more like a damn machine each day.  If anything, a damn machine(s) are starting to run our lives.  The beep or twang from a cellphone has us jump to look at it.  The ring of a phone has us stop to answer it.  Young people seem to have lost the ability to carry on a conversation or even write something that is longer than the limited character allotment from Twitter.

So here's a challenge... once in a while, take a break from technology and do something like write a letter, read a book (no e-reader), have a conversation that isn't work related, etc...
