What A Day

Technologically challenged today.

I merely tried to reboot the internet.

This should not be hard in this day and age.

And it wasn’t hard. It was darn near impossible.

I recently read this New York Times article. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/06/technology/smartphone-addiction-flip-phone.html

A reporter decided to switch out her smartphone for a flip phone.

In this day and age, that is courage, my friends.

It is a burgeoning movement. Well, burgeoning may be a stretch.

But more and more people are trying to opt out and do a tech and smartphone detox.

The article below in Reader’s Digest magazine was published a couple of years ago.

Same theme as the NYT article. But an even stronger and an even more positive result.

So the irony of this is, I, of course, copied the link to paste it in this post. Not once, it seems but four times!!

I’m done for today.

The dead then slow internet connection left me to write this post late in the day.

I am sharing the burden of my tech frustration with ya’ll.

Which I realize isn’t really even fair.

I am sure you all have plenty of tech and smartphone related frustration stories of your own,
