I have an issue with being interested in/working with #digipres where I basically feel obligation to work on professional development *all the time* - blogging, tinkering, reading the stuff posted by you lovely people here or on Twitter, thinking about workshops or labs
It's right there constantly - since it's in the same place as my "relaxation" (Instagram, Netflix, podcasts, etc), i.e. on my phone or laptop
How do you shut off and take a weekend and evening to yourself?
I agree - time away from the internet is important. I also log out of my work accounts sometimes, while still logged into personal ones. Not as good as just being offline, but it helps.
@The_BFOOL I've been playing with keeping my laptop confined to a desk. Makes it easier for me to check out over the weekend.
@The_BFOOL @nkrabben good idea, it is easier when the home computer is a desktop PC
@The_BFOOL a hobby that requires extended disconnection from the internet. For me, this is cycling. It’s also a great way to escape the city.
