Do You Remember Life Before A Computer

Can you still remember what your life was life before you had a computer? Although it seems like computers have been around forever, they are relatively new and a large portion of the population has lived in a time when there was no pcs. However, there are some people alive today who use a computer and who have never known a time without a computer. There are even some alive who have lived far more years before the advent of the computer than they will ever live after it

As hard as it is to believe, there was a time when people got along without websites such as Ebay, Twitter, Facebook and even Google. For that matter, there was a time when people lived life with no computer or even a microwave in their home.

I can remember a time in my life when I used a typewriter to get my reports done when I was in school. Oh yes, the good ol' typewriter. Do you remember using the white out instead of a delete button? A case could be made that the delete button has been the biggest undoing of the white out business.

Pcs are very much a part of our lives on a daily basis now. While they are designed to make our lives a lot easier and more productive, they can be the opposite if we let them.

The way that we use our pc is a statement about our ability to maintain self control. It can be much harder than it seems on the surface. The computer can be used to access the endless amounts of information - good and bad - on the web. Learning is a good thing and can be addicting. However, it can also make us much more counterproductive.

Kept within control though, computers can make our life a lot easier and more productive than ever before. From researching to writing to managing information, a pc can be a huge time and paper saver. It can also be a great way to share and stay connected with friends, family and others.

We can manage our computers and not let them control us if we make and live by a few rules. One rule you might consider is to set a limit to how much free time you spend on the computer. You could also set aside certain days/times of day that is computer time and stick to that.

It is important to take strong control with our computer time so that we can make them work for us. Pcs are constantly changing and that makes it easier for us to be connected to them non-stop. With some control, we can make sure that they are used to save us time rather than take up more time in our lives.
