To Infinity and Beyond...

Due to late night classes and writing papers I found ABC.com had all of their shows online to view the next day at anytime. It's so convenient, but at the same time maybe I'm missing out. I might miss the new commercial ads or any major news stories. What I'm getting at, is if this is in some way the new wave, is the TV the next thing to be outdated. Are we going to be attached to the Computer Screen with pop-ups of headline news that we can't avoid? And then by that time will we download shows onto our ipods and then in a few years have an ipod sized gadget, like a smaller laptop that conveniently fits in a bag that "Everyone" wears and has a wireless satelite type thing so that we can be on the internet at all times of the day no matter where we go? Now, don't get me wrong, I am aware that these things already exist, but how soon will it become the ultimate craze, that everyone will own and we will walk around unattached from others, unless we met them online? I'm not against advances in technology, but I guess I'm getting to the point in my life where I thought the way things were, were also nice. There are many positive aspects to the future and negative ones. Ones, where we were all very social and friendly rather than keeping to ourselves. This is just a rough draft of my thoughts of today :)
