Our Dependency on Technology

 

Over the past week I have been without email access periodically and my website has been up and down, very frustrating! I am sure you have had similar experiences at some point in time. It amazes me how dependent we have become on all of these gadgets, our computer, our cell phone, email, text messages…it has gotten so bad/good that sometimes you can’t even buy that cup of Starbucks. I stopped at my local coffee shop and could not buy a cup, because the computer was down. The good news was the manager used this as an opportunity to make lots of friends; she gave away the coffee for free…WAY COOL! Instead of getting mad, she used the technology failure to the coffee shops advantage…I can’t wait for their system to go down again, maybe I can get one of those breakfast sandwiches…
