Interesting piece about a Forbes editor doing without his cell phone and Blackberry for a week, oh and no email either.
It made him cry.
The money quote is that when he had to disconnect it wasn’t just cutting off communcation, it was cutting off connection. He meant that to indicate connection with other humans, in that at one point he wanted to connect someone in Bangalore with someone in Hong Kong, which he could not do without email.
Watch it and see what you think…
