12/1/11: Hamlet's Blackberry
Salt Lake City, UT – It takes a lot of work to stay afloat in today's ultra-connected world. Every day we face a torrent of emails, tweets, texts, tags, alerts, comments, pokes and posts. The writer William Powers believes that all those digital demands increasingly distract us from ourselves, from an inner place where time isn't so fugitive and the mind can slow down. He proposes a new digital philosophy that accounts for our needs to connect and for time apart, and he'll talk with Doug about it on Thursday.
