Cyber sabbaticals...


After reading an article that Lily Allen is giving up facebook, twitter and has even locked her laptop in a box now safely stored under the bed I wonder if it is to be a year where for once technology and communication go on a sabbatical.

Maybe they are having a tiff and need a 'break' for some time out alone. Will 2010 be a year where conversation becomes real again with actual human interaction, where your thumb regains feeling and you call instead of text, where blogging isn't the in thing to do and your hand doesn't creep to your bag / pocket every 30 minutes to check for tweet updates? How in a world so reliant on cyber communications will this romantic notion of writing a letter or popping round for a cuppa thrive? Who knows but it has given me plenty of ideas for a shoot later this month.
