I’m always look for some background voices to fill my home office day and Spark, by CBC Radio has become one of my staples.

This week’s topic really resonated with me: technology and how we give things a personality. How we interact differently not only with people but also how technology tends to open up an opportunity to lose perspective on what’s important. Answering a call during a meeting, texting while out on a date, the ‘attachement issues’ we now have with our handheld devices – be they tablet or mobile size.

As someone who is passionate about technology – working in it and using it for pleasure – I’m also well aware of the importance of creating that balance.

There’s also a great comment in this podcast about how our devices give us hope. Take a listen – well worth it.
