I feel a bit weird calling myself a digital native. Sure, I grew up using computers for pretty much everything, but it still feels odd. I have an Ipod, but rarely use it. Cell phones annoy me. I guess I think technology sometimes restricts us from fully living. I don't want a cell phone plastered to my ear while I'm driving, I'd rather enjoy the world around me, or even pay attention to the road. And while everyone else is at the gym - in their Ipod worlds - I'd like to take in my surroundings and be able to say "hi" to someone and them actually be able to hear me. Don't get me wrong, I like that technology is advancing, but I think people need to step back from their digital lives and move back to the real one every once in awhile.
