New surveys suggest that the technological tools we use to make our lives easier are killing our leisure<br />
time. We are working longer hours, taking fewer and shorter vacations (and when we do go away, we take<br />
our cell phones, PDAs, and laptops along). And, we are more stressed than ever as increased use of e-mail,<br />
voice mail, cell phones, and the Internet is destroying any idea of privacy and leisure.<br />
Since the Industrial Revolution, people have assumed that new labor-saving devices would free them from<br />
the burdens of the workplace and give them more time to grow intellectually, creatively, and socially –<br />
exploring the arts, keeping up with current events, spending more time with friends and family, and even just<br />
‘goofing off’.<br />
But here we are at the start of the 21st century, enjoying one of the greatest technological boom times in<br />
human history, and nothing could be further from the truth. The very tools that were supposed to liberate us<br />
have bound us to our work and study in ways that were inconceivable just a few years ago. It would seem<br />
that technology almost never does what we expect.<br />
In ‘the old days’, the lines between work and leisure time were markedly clearer. People left their offices at<br />
a predictable time, were often completely disconnected from and out of touch with their jobs as they traveled<br />
to and from work, and were off-duty once they were home. That is no longer true. In today’s highly<br />
competitive job market, employers demand increased productivity, expecting workers to put in longer hours<br />
and to keep in touch almost constantly via fax, cell phones, e-mail, or other communications devices. As a<br />
result, employees feel the need to check in on what is going on at the office, even on days off. They feel<br />
pressured to work after hours just to catch up on everything they have to do. Workers work harder and<br />
longer, change their work tasks more frequently, and have more and more reasons to worry about job<br />
security.<br />
Bosses, colleagues, family members, lovers, and friends expect instant responses to voice mail and e-mail<br />
messages. Even college students have become bound to their desks by an environment in which faculty,<br />

<br />
friends, and other members of the college community increasingly do their work online. Studies of time<br />
spent on instant messaging services would probably show staggering use.<br />
This is not what technology was supposed to be doing for us. New technologies, from genetic research to<br />
the Internet, offer all sorts of benefits and opportunities. But, when new tools make life more difficult and<br />
stressful rather than easier and more meaningful – and we are, as a society, barely conscious of it – then<br />
something has gone seriously awry, both with our expectations for technology and our understanding of how<br />
it should benefit us.<br />
