Sitting quietly in the dumbness of my own existence, I often think about my passion. What is a single point issue which can extract hours from my running time machine without even a signal of irritation.
No, it is not girl friend, cigarette, drink and you name a few. It is plain and simple - Gadget.
I think twice before spending money and often change my decision if my liking exceeds my budget. But if it is a gadget and I have zeroed in on it, I am ready to go on austerity drive for years together in order to purchase the same.
Why do I have such a maddening fascination for gadget ? Even you also feel the same, Don't you ! Good, then you would be interested in my story.
But the problem is that my story does not have an end as many choices are left undecided. You would help me ! Great, so let's move on.
First let's tune our frequency. I would concentrate about personal gadgets. These are different from common gadgets in many ways. Discussion would be on computers, mobile, household items, related accessories and their usages.
Usefulness and extent of the same are two prime factors while choosing a particular gadget.
Some say gadgets are integral part of their life, for some it is difficult to live without, to some it give a feeling of winning over intricacies and for some it acts as a friend in their loneliness.
People elevated a little find gadgets signify efficiency in their personal life. These connected times of globalization call for capabilities beyond common homo sapiens, to just cope up. The gap can be filled through gadgets.
In social sphere gadget eases interaction in speed and in content. Policy makers and visionaries want to use gadget for bringing in transparency and honesty as a whole.
There is a clear trend of evolution as far as my Gadgetted journey is concerned.
A fashion, a status symbol, a craze, a madness, a utility item, a system facilitator and an instrument of social change, my gadgetted journey has seen it all.

Himanshu ji,
Please do not be too lazy.I am waiting for a crisp post from you.
I kind of agree with you. Gadgets are what we could call necessary evil, in the mildest and most suiting terms.
ReplyDeleteThey all make life easier and simpler, i specially like their contribution to communication. it is much easier to communicate. but then it is very important to draw a line and not let gadgets overtake one's daily routine. I for sometimes, as a quiet indulgence, switch off my mobile and enjoy moments of peace :D
