Physicist Stephen Hawikns says the rate at which computers are adding new intelligence, they could soon rule the world!
Few days back I was reading an article written by Dilip Dobb and I came to know one of the most prevalent disease (in other words you can call it a phobia!) among the techie junta called "discomgoogolation"
Strange name! :O
Well guys its nothing but a phobia which is very common among the people who regularly access net! Mainly its a word which defines our electronic addiction! Some studies done by foreign geeks show that computer addicts (people like us) get stressed out when they do not access net for a long time and the reaction which they show are as follows :
* People get stressed out if they are unable to access net
* They show signs of irritation at there level
* In personal they feel a kind of "emptiness" :P [Now what kind of emptiness did this scholar meant I am still unable to understand]
According to this scholar 47 percent of the people he polled believed that internet was more important in their lives than religion.! GOD HELP US :-|
Well this is what the study says!
Now there is another mistery behind this unheard name The researcher has derived this name as the techie is unable to access net = not able to do googlling! DISCOM-GOOGOLATION!
Once one of my frnd had put a following status message "Thousands of years back when people left there food, family and had no idea about there life were called sages but in today's world they are called IT Professionals"!
As far as my perspective is considered, I do feel that this internet and computers have really made our life easy. A galaxy of information is just a click away! all it needs is to click your mouse button and just surf.
I do agree that internet is slowly and steadily becomes the part of life for people who spend their maximum time in front of their PC (esp IT professionals)
As per me I am on the line edge of getting this phobia and if I continued working in my job then soon I'll not be the normal one.
So what about you .....ARE YOU NORMAL??

The emptiness that the researcher is talking,is the second level of Maslow's Motivational Pyramid, which are the social needs. As Vidya Balan points out in her first dialogue in the movie, Lage Raho Munna Bhai, in the modern civilization, as the world is soon shrinking the boundaries between humans is increasing. They are not able to connect with others socially physically, rather connect with other in the virtual world, and hence the disease 'discomgoogolation'
