sometimes i wonder is technology making us dumb?  i too like to listen to my mp3 player or play with my digital camera, but i still distrust technology. frequently i see people walking on the street looking at what else, their smart phones, while avoiding each other's stare. i like to think of technology as a tool, but is it possible that computers are controlling us?

i find myself jealous of my parents, their computer disabilities and their opportunity to grow up in a time when you didnt need facebook to communicate with your friends, because most days i wake up and go on my computer.

"Whatever caused the slump that, in turn, became a panic, one thing was clear—none of those who had helped to inflate the bubble felt responsible for its bursting. They were the blameless casualties of a disaster of almost natural proportions." Diaz, H. (2022). Trust: Winner of the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Pan Macmillan.
