So I've been thinking for the past few days that I would make an update here. Just a short one, talking about what I've been doing, how I've been investing my time into various electronic media. But I keep getting stalled by one thing: nothing has changed. The generic "how my (digial) day goes" post is frightningly accurate - even moreso than I figured it would be. It's been a little strange to realize that I really DON'T vary all that much in my media habits. I spend a similar amount of time watching TV and surfing the net every day.

And I have to wonder: does this have something to do with my guilt about "wasting my time"? I think I'll start calling it "digital guilt." I don't feel guilty about the time I spend, say, reading a book before bed. But surfing the net and television are definitely sources of guilt in my daily life. I feel bad for doing it, and I typically feel that I should be investing myself differently.

The question is, how right am I? )
