technology and internet

hey pals..yes i have been on and off..bloggin erratically ..not much to share about.
There are few new dimesions in which technology has been influencing my life.

Considering the time spent online and the time spent talking over the phone, there is hardly any time spent doing something else. Finding information or GOOGLING has become the most confusing activity. Information is CHAOS and it becomes evident almost anyday now. There is so much information. Terrabytes of data that finding it and verifying it has become almost impossible.
websites like wikipedia are there. There is information but I am never sure what I am rreading is what? Whose point of view and whats it is. But thats the way it is now. Accepted and so before going to the movie I don't read review. Takes all the fin out. 20 reviews of a movie and you cannot decide what it is. To write your own you have to go and watch the movie. Intersting isn't it.

This is one aspect of it. On the other hand are things like PANDORA [http://pandora.com] try it out. This is unlike any other radio on the internet and for those who want to experiment with music this is the thing worth trying provided bandwidth is not a conern.

Though I have been lsitening to so much music these days that I cannot make out what is what. My DVD playes acts as an amplifier for the laptop thats all the use it has now a days. I have bought cds but not even put them into my ipod. Somehow it feels that there is no choice and options in the 30 GB of music i carry on my waist.

There is so much there to see and listen to in this world. I wonder were people referring to internet when they said "so much".

When we were small kids we waited weeks for episodes to come on TV. Now you can download all of them. Watch them one after there...but is there that much of fun in it now. Yes and No.

Somehow I feel when things become too easy to get. It becomes tougher to appreciate them. This is luxary or this is pain. Is this a vicious cycle. Whatever it is. this is it :) and its engulfing the whole of the existece.

Watch out..when is your turn ?
