/. Discussion: Computer Addiction v. Modern Life
Slashdot has a rather interesting discussion going on right now (though for some reason the main write-up lacks a link to any sort of article) about Computer Addiction. Is it really an addiction like crack or heroin, or is it just a modern way of life for a lot of folks? I've chimed in.
I'll warn you up front: Slashdot discussions are... Interesting things. Folks there tend to blur lines when it comes to their posts and the emotions they express. Their brand of humor might differ greatly from that of the average BP reader, so please: Take everything there with a grain of salt. Especially with this topic, since most typical Slashdot users could be considered addicts themselves... (Link)
