Okay, I'm all for the digital hub. I think it's a fabulous idea, and it's really bringing a lot of cool ideas into form.. but I'm beginning to wonder about it's (among other things) effect upon human activity (and just in general). As we've moved from the electronic age into the internet age, and now the digital age. ( I apoligize if I jumped around ages etc or missed some.) We've continually grown less active.
While it's great we have all these devices and these ways to use, I wonder if we're just making ourselves more dependant (well, psuedo dependant, we don't really need them to survive) on our computers and sitting down in front of them to accomplish things.
What are your thoughts on this? Is the Couch Potato going to be replaced by the Digital Potato? Has it already been?
thanks for your thoughts
I look foreward to them..
