I am now obsessed too much

Finally I am surrounded with apple products now, first from ipod nano, ipod touch(3rd &4th), and iPad, and now Macbook Air. My life these days won't work without them. I woke up and open Macbook Air to write a blog, hit an ipod touch app to see twitter, browse through articles, and keep track of the day(some thing like how much I devote myself to developing, etc), and use iPad to read deeply such as Hacker News, e-books(for online lecture, and other field of computer science), and manga. I can say that the time I spend with one of those gadget is longer than that of time without those. I live without them only when sleeping, eating, taking shower...

I was surprised to realize that my hand looks for iPod touch immediately after I wake up. And I now think this is a little dangerous. I recalled one article.

Why I returned my iPad

This is exactly the reason I am feeling uneasy. They are too good, too portable. I had a long time I shouldn't have spent with those gadgets. It is not that time with those is better than that of without them. We need a time of boring. Having nothing to do, our brain starts to roam and find something. Using those gadget mainly for input. therefore, using those too much means endless constant input to brain. brain needs time to organize, reflect, and repeat. that is done when we sleep under unconscious, and boring time under conscious. both are needed.

I have to say this to myself. These products are not what you created, some people around the world who are really top-notch created, it is not honor just to used it well. The point is what you do with them, and that has to be your work. not imitating, and common. Be careful about this.
