At the end of the day it's neither here or there. I find myself to be an interesting individual in terms of the age I am versus the time I have spent using technological tools. It is my opinion that since I only became active on the Internet well into my 30s and 40s and really only started to take it seriously in my 40s, ditto for cellular use and data, that I often feel as though I have more parallels in my perceptions of these tools as do people half my age. I lack the over worn lethargy and general malaise that some of my peers age-wise have, and believe me I do feel their pain having witnessed assault that concepts such as PC clones, dedicated word processors and Jerry Seinfeld grade silver antenna wireless handsets have unleashed on my generation X. but by staying out of it, and taking a different path over the decades, that being much more of a wilderness and outdoors road, I arrived on the scene relatively fresh and recently. So I lack the bias of a Ma Bell-raised American middle-age guy, and in a natural organic way hold myself out in the light as a more European minded fresh mind, who sees the value of devices that only have phone as a program, not some God-given right to litter the landscape with telephone poles since we won the war. I don't think that individuals should use communication tools to implement their personal or psychological agendas, and I think that we all should see these devices as a way to bring humanity together and never as gadgets or something simply materialistic. They are complex, and the result of millions of hard-working men and women in the real bugger is that they change all the time and that is the plight of the technology driven. It's enough to really weigh one down and my first struggle was the discovery and implementation of efficiency hardware and software versus being efficient or trying to while learning all about the stuff sitting around on the computer and phone all day. By default many people my age will look at this blog and say that I spend too much time on that stuff. That is true but only about 5 to 7% too much time. That in my mind is the amount of time on top of my own self serving endeavors, that it takes to bring along others in my explorations, aggravations (so that you don't have the same), and revelations. At the end of the day it all boils down promise to you: I will always endeavor to seek a good balance between thoroughness and efficiency/brevity the final result being a gift to you more time saved then you spend on the blog.
