Throughout the weekend for the first time in years i spent the whole day on the computer. This actually was just to see what I’ll do on it. my expectations about this “experiment” was i would get bored after about 30 minutes and then get off and do other things. I was…… WRONG! Although I did get off the computer in different time lapses but eventually I ended up back on the computer one way or another. I did see that i did the same thing over and over and over again ! That is look at the same websites constantly as if i haven’t been on them already.
This “experiment” i conducted on myself….aha…… allowed me to see that although we can get bored on the computer after some time, it doesn’t prevent us from going back to it and sitting there doing the same thing. for some reason i find it as if it some kind of suction magnet that brings us right back to it. Technology has its ways if bring us towards it and not to mention our phones do that same, if its apps, texting, IM’ing, whatever you do on the phone you can’t stop.
