The Era where Man is with Machine

The pace at which technology has grown is something very interesting and this is something which has been discussed quiet a lot too... If we take a normal day in our life and see how much machines we use, it is so high that if we were to go back to stage where these were not there, we would find it hard to even get through a single day.

Now that i work in a BPO, i find it strange to see people in my office looking at the computer screens from morning 7 to about evening 8-9 etc. I look at it from morning 7 to maybe 5 on a daily basis and occasionally up to 8. But after coming back to my room, i  switch on the lap or the smart phone that i use and am back to staring at a screen.

Thanks to the technology again, i'm able to talk over phone to my friends and family back home. Thanks to technology, i can shop, bank or do anything online. But, when i go back home to my friends and family i don't have anything to speak. The human touch that was there to shopping, banking - the hello or the wish you get - when you go to shop or bank is no longer there. People are so reluctant even look at you smile nowadays. We have moved from being social to being E-Social.

i find it even more odd in the 1st class or 2nd class compartments in trains, where as soon as people enter, they switch on there laptops or tablets and are back working. Are people so busy these days???

Not very far down the line, we will get a time where there will be no hand shakes and everything will be electronic. From that day on we will be E-Humans...

Have a good E-Day people...
