The fact is that Facebook now has 1.2 billion users, and that is expected to increase, as do many of the other technologies. When you think about the ways in which the technologies we use every day have improved our lives, it is almost impossible to imagine that if 15 years ago I had asked or told someone about the technologies we use today for free, I would have been considered crazy, but the fact is that these technologies are available to us and cost us nothing in terms of money. They cost us our time, but they don't require any kind of monetary investment.
The possibilities offered by technology are enormous and people are faced with a choice every day, consciously or unconsciously. Of course these products influence our habits (that's what I talk about in my book), but just because we have a habit doesn't mean that if that habit wasn't ours, we would be powerless Web Development Services to resist it. This isn't necessarily turning people into zombies or drug addicts. It's about helping people do what they want and these new technologies are so well designed that they facilitate their habits. So I think we have the ability to make a conscious choice , it's just that these products are designed.
To help us do the things we want to do as easily as possible and therefore they become habits. What's the story behind "Hooked"? What brought you there? I started two technology companies of which the last was the cross between gaming and advertising. This vantage point, given the intersection of these two industries, gave me the opportunity to observe a lot of trial and error in my forming thinking. Many companies come and go, trying to get people to engage in certain behaviors, and I've been fascinated by how some companies have succeeded while other companies haven't.
