• Many of us hesitate to use the latest technologies, don’t we?
• Do you walk with a cane, or do you know someone who does?
• Do you use other technology that becomes a nuisance at times?
• What do you when you are walking somewhere using your cane and carrying a bag, and your cell phone rings?

If you don’t use a cane, you probably haven’t thought about this. I had to stop, figure out what to do with the cane and bag, and get my phone out of my pocket, before I could answer it.  Then, I was left standing there, unsteadily, with my phone in one hand, my cane and packages in the other.  I had to finish the call before I could move!

So what could I do? I could not answer the phone, which was my solution until I found more technology to help with this situation.  I got a Bluetooth earpiece for my phone! Mine is a jawbone! I bought it so I could answer the phone in the car and keep my hands free, and it is great for that! But once I had it I learned that it was great for other things too.

Now all I have to do when I get that dreaded phone call, is stop for a second, push the button to activate the earpiece, and continue walking while I talk (no not to myself) on the phone. No more worrying about tipping over while I stand somewhere and finish a phone call, and no more worrying about whether the phone call I missed was important or urgent.

More technology to overcome the challenges created by the earlier use of technology. What a concept!

• Are you a person who delays the adoption of new technologies?
• Do you wish for the day when cars didn’t have computers, and normal people could actually fix them?
• Many of us hesitate to use the latest technologies, don’t we?
• Do you walk with a cane, or do you know someone who does?
• But what is technology, and why should or shouldn’t we adopt it?

http://www.merriam-webster.com concise encyclopedia says it is the Application of knowledge to the practical aims of human life or to changing and manipulating the human environment. It goes on to say Technology includes the use of materials, tools, techniques, and sources of power to make life easier or more pleasant and work more productive.

So is a cane, or a walking stick as I long preferred to call it, an example of technology? To see the answer to that, we can first answer “is the cane a tool?” and then answer “does t make life easier”. If the answer to those questions is yes for you, then the cane is technology, isn’t it?

So why not use it? Maybe because:

• You have to figure out what to do with the cane when you get where you are going.
• You now need two legs and one hand to walk.
• Some of your muscles may become weak because you don’t use them as much.
• You may overuse, stress or injure your arm.
• As you become more dependent you may be less able to walk without it.

I use a cane, and I know from personal experience that these down sides are real. For me the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and we’ll talk another time about how I use more technology to help me deal with the disadvantages.
