2017:
I am traveling in a Leyland bus ( Fort to Anuradhapura). I looked at everyone seated. All had their necks tilted, scrolling the world through facebook and chat apps.
Internet and mobile phones are so common now that we do not even think of “offline”.
2007:
I was in a workshop. I heard ” if we can get more people online, the better the world would be”.
I thought rise of social media will help us to solve problems. I thought the more we are connected, the more motivated we will be to solve problems.
After 10 years, we are connected so dense, in a manner we did not imagined. We are connected to gossips, selfies, games and shopping. We want to show we are better than others. That’s how dense we are connected.
