Post #342 I’m A Gadget Freak

it’s not exaggerating, but i am a total geek! i just love gadget and techs :) they’re the most awesome thing in the world (this, i’m exaggerating).

okay, as promised (sworn) by me and timothy : we will not use blackberry’s and if either one of us use it, we’d have to throw it (not away just down to the ground).

so here’s a list of better smarter phones than blackberry – which is definitely more efficient and functional than blackberry.

1. iPhone 3GS
2. Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 [link]
3. Sony Ericsson Satio [link]
4. Motorola Dext (well, this just goes number one on my graduation gift list :P)
5. MOTO Q9h (this is my grandpapi’s phone. LOVE IT!!)

i’m not saying that BB are bad or they’re going to take over the world – heck, they already did – but i’m just saying that BB are a very enormous trend which will go away eventually. my grandfather had been considering BB since its first coming to Indonesia when i was in the 7th grade i guess. it’s an old thing caught up in late publicity.

the outburst of web-based social network communities like facebook, twitter, myspace, even blogger (hell, i have them all) or even instant messaging services like YM, MSN, iChat, etc. mixed with the need of modern community for more up-to-date all-access device to facilitate them push companies to fulfill those needs.

but from what i see – a mere guiltless observation – that our community (read: INDONESIA) is not being open minded for this mass act of globalization. looking at this easier access to the wider web, the world NOW HAS NO BOUNDARIES. countries collide into one giant nation. that is a great thing but, yet, indonesia is not being mature and open-minded about it.

stupid competitions of markets and social peer pressures over trends. technology is not being used to its maximum capacity. IN INDONESIA RIGHT NOW – ESPECIALLY THE YOUTH, THE NEXT GENERATION OF LEADERS – IS WASTING WHAT’S SUPPOSED TO BE A FACILITY FOR A SERIOUS MATTER. world unity can be achieved through these wonderful devices extraordinary human minds had created. but all i’m seeing is that people just got over-addicted to the thing it becomes a waste.

agerecontra : seeing something in a new point of view, from a different direction. i learned about this during LDK from the team i observed, Alpha. looking at this techie matter from a new direction got me this post. it’s a worrisome matter and it should be fixed. it’s the next batch of leaders we’re facing at. if it’s still going through like this : this generation i’m in now IS NEVER GOING TO BE READY for what reality has in store in the future.

yaa, saudara-saudara, saya menghujat. not because i can’t afford blackberry’s (it’s true, i can’t afford it) but because i have a voice and i’m concern. i’m a gadget freak but i’m a Pancasila-freak even more. everything that i do is only for God’s and my Nation’s greater glory. that’s what my school taught me : PRO DEO ET PATRIA.

i used to write posts and writings of things that caught my mind, things i know i have the right to voice it out loud. i have the facility to say my opinions while there are many others who doesn’t. i’m not going to waste mine in some crappy sad-ish posts of tangled emotions i created myself.

i used to write my opinions on things when i am bored and i’m going to do that again. haha! LOL!

and just a fair warning : i tend to be harsh on certain matter ;)
