I agree! A blog offers a way to express your opinions and, hopefully, engage in a healthy exchange of ideas. For a mature person, creating a blog also makes you feel as though you are still in touch with technology. It opens up your world.
Thanks for your comment, Leslie. One of my goals for the class is to have everyone leave the course as an enthusiastic blogger.
See you next week.
Danny
I must admit that I don't mind this blogging process as much as I thought I would. As I enjoy creative processes, I appreciate the opportunity to post my ideas and associated pictures.
Then again, I have always had a fear in the back of my mind that technology is going to take over the world or destroy our world. I enjoy nature, and it scares/saddens me that technology has begun to creep into nature. Can't I go into a restaurant anymore without being disrupted by a cell phone, or can't I walk into a park without seeing someone type a letter on his laptop? I'm afraid the answer is becoming "no." I hope that people will soon realize the importance of having "tech-free" zones, before we all get dragged and subjected to this technological frenzy.
Interesting comments.
I frequently see people checking their Blackberries in Forest Park, and there IS something sad about that. However, I suspect some of these people are only able to slip away to the park because they are able to take their work with them.
I've been advised by my physician to walk for at least 30 minutes once each day, but find it very hard to break away from my desk when I have unanswered mail in my inbox.
