A few weeks ago I kinda made a joke thread about what do you have time for now that you don't have time for "That"
But seriously, folks, with technology making things easier, like paying bills online, or ordering products online, have you noticed any extra free time over the past few years and what are you doing with it?

Sadly, filling it with other stuff, and then complaining that I never have any free time.

Kinda.
But I am able to devote more of my time to stuff I actually like/enjoy.
Whereas before I'd have to wade through a bunch of stuff on TV I was only kinda interested in to be entertained, now I can watch stuff I'm REALLY interested more often. So I can devote more time to watching shows/movies I like because its easier to find and get them (Hulu,netflix etc) rather than say,...like during mustseeTV era. You'd watch Friends, then some show that was okay, but not great, then Seinfeld. Now you can distill it down to just the stuff you truly are interested in. So in a way, less time is wasted even if you're spending more time watching stuff.
Same goes for music.

Kinda, but not really, because people expect that you either DO have extra time, or expect you to be contactable/'on duty' all the time.
Just look at all the recent ads for Microsoft Office 365, for crying out loud.

I'd keep it off for a week if I could, but sadly, like a day tops. |
