A month unplugged…

Posted on by William Kerr in This is all a test

…here’s what I found.

  • It’s less challenging to unplug than I thought it would be.
  • Unplugging entails more than just not blogging or engaging with social media.
    • Think email.
    • Think phone calls.
    • Think TV or streaming services.
    • Think YouTube podcasts etc.
  • Being unplugged is not a genuinely alternative lifestyle in our present-day social networked society.
  • Plugged in, in all its various guises, seems to require intention and attention, not an unconscious distraction.
  • It’s one of our primary sources of connection, engagement, entertainment, information, and a business building block.

So we probably shouldn’t waste it by complaining about it but instead, find better ways to use it.
