To continue my rant about “social” media, I have come to the conclusion that I resent the confinement of sitting in front of the screen far more than the technology. Even though I have two computers at opposite sides of the house, one of them a laptop, I still feel far more confined than I would if I had to read a book. SO…are the new tablets such as the iPad significantly more mobile than a laptop? I know that they are lighter, and I would like to be able to do social media in more settings than those accommodated by my laptop. I want something to do on a five-minute break and respond to a post, for example.
Your thoughts?
Still no IPad here. However, I do have two PCs, a Mac, and a Laptop. I write on one PC, format covers on the other one. The laptop and Mac are both online; the laptop when we are away from the house. Aren’t we becoming addicted to technology? However, we haven’t moved into the hand-held generation of gadgets yet. We still use a land line, no cell phone or other devices. Oh yeah, I have an older Mac under the desk in case of emergency – can’t afford to be off line because of computer shut down, you know.
Looking forward to your next book!
