There is a widespread belief that technology creates energy. It enables the delivery of energy but it does not produce it. You cant use technology to create energy. Energy exists of its own accord. Technology helps with the delivery. Thats all. Obviously there is a lot of technology involved in the delivery of energy, and the two, energy and technology are so closely intermeshed that it seems hard to tell which came first, an instance of the chicken or egg first question.
Broken widgets. I think they used to have different pictures in them. Now they all say lets fight hunger together. They should say instead, If you break it, you should fix it. But thats my point. Technology needs a constant input of energy to keep working. In this case, I think I will just get rid of the broken widgets, once I get enough spare energy to do it. Clean up after yourself Google. Thats what I would say if Google was my kids.
Anyway, I dont care about this argument. The only reason I brought it up is that some of the google widgets I put on the sidebar of this blog have stopped working. Google informed me that they would by way of an email. And sure enough, they have stopped working. But now, I have to expend energy to fix the technology. so thats my point. Technology eats up energy.
