When 'google' becomes your new best friend it's time to pull the plug.
Seriously, most of us would find life a little bit trickier without our computers. After all, they are designed to simplify our lives in much the same way as microwaves, mobile phones and remote controls do.
Does this make us lazy? Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't. Nothing is bad for you if done in moderation, or so they say.
Without my computer, it would cost me more to keep in touch with my parents in Spain. Through MSN I 'speak' to my Mum regularly. And I can send her photos, etc, at the click of a button.
Without my computer, I would undoubtedly learn less.
Without my computer, I would watch more garbage on television.
Without my computer, I would spend my poker bankroll on stuff I don't need.
Without my computer, I would actually have less friends.
Please don't take it away.
