Last night I did something that reminded me of the kids in "Feed" me and my friends all decided to get started on our papers that we had to write. We all brought our laptops into the living room and started working on our papers. Not much work got done though as we all started instant messaging each other and eventually we all entered one chat room and one big conversation. I felt like the kids in "Feed" because we were all communicating nonverbal, similar to the m-chatting done in their heads. There were four of use who were doing this on our laptops, but one of the girls did not have a laptop. She reminded me of how people without the feed must feel because we were having full conversions without her even knowing. We could tell she felt left out, but we wanted to be quiet so she could read. I just thought this was a funny story and it made me realize how close our lives are to becoming like the characters in feed. Also, if anyone wants to get anther feed experience IM ZolaOnAOL, its just automated responses by a "robot" but it is pretty entertaining.
