Disconnect to connect

hi folks!!
we were discussing this week about how high-tech device affect you and your life style? and would you live without internet, cellphone, or laptop/PC? at the end we know that technology brings many advantages to our live. we can enumerate here the advantages that technology brings to us: more productivity, higher profits and income, less workforce (like automation for example). and on the other hand the cons, time, new skills had to be acquired, maintenance (how to keep up), time.
but at the end at what cost?
it's getting us apart form each other, friends, family...
This video expose exactly what we have discussed!


Note: This is Thai ad, in the end the narrator said "Stay offline some time to embrace your surroundings. Use the phone just as necessary." This network provider focuses on the appropriate use of mobile and Internet.


that is all folks!
;D

  1. Hey Hirley! I found you post absolutely great! I do feel we get "too connected"!

    This Thai ad almost made me cry! As it was said by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in the novel The Little Prince, "We are forever responsible for what we have tamed!" - That means we need to cultivate the relationships we have developed over the years!

    Congrats!
