My Opinion on the 24 Hour Technology Strike
I have not completed this yet, but I wanted to share how I think this will work before hand. I think it will be absolute chaos. Unfortunately, people can not go more than an hour (even in class) without checking their phones. If we are to boycott social media and our phones for an entire day, people will go berserk. I am not saying that I am not a part of this problem, because I am. I am sort of afraid to do this because I play a lot of games on my phone, as well as use it for email, etc. We need to come up with a way to live without technology if we need to, and actually re-learn our communication skills. We have suffered in our interpersonal communication with the emergence of these new technological advances, and gives us more of a reason to not react to peoples faces, but hide behind our $500 smartphones. This assignment will be very interesting, I can't wait to read how it goes for the class. I personally am not looking forward to it, but it is very intriguing to see if I can do it.
