[Interesting experience by Paul Miller showing that "no web is not the solution".]
I was wrong.
One year ago I left the internet. I thought it was making me unproductive. I thought it lacked meaning. I thought it was « corrupting my soul. »
It’s a been a year now since I « surfed the web » or « checked my email » or « liked » anything with a figurative rather than literal thumbs up. I’ve managed to stay disconnected, just like I planned. I’m internet free.
And now I’m supposed to tell you how it solved all my problems. I’m supposed to be enlightened. I’m supposed to be more « real, » now. More perfect.
