Steve Jobs described early computers as “the most remarkable tool that we’ve ever come up with..it’s equivalent of a bicycle for our minds.” Would you describe smartphones as a bicycle for our minds?

Here is my stance on the phone issue and a quote from Steve himself.

"I think one of the things that really separates us from the high primates is that we’re tool builders. I read a study that measured the efficiency of locomotion for various species on the planet. The condor used the least energy to move a kilometer. And, humans came in with a rather unimpressive showing, about a third of the way down the list. It was not too proud a showing for the crown of creation. So, that didn’t look so good. But, then somebody at Scientific American had the insight to test the efficiency of locomotion for a man on a bicycle. And, a man on a bicycle, a human on a bicycle, blew the condor away, completely off the top of the charts.

And that’s what a computer is to me. What a computer is to me is it’s the most remarkable tool that we’ve ever come up with, and it’s the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds."

Explanation:

Like anything smartphones, computers, and television can be the junk-food equivalent of our minds or the inspiration to better yourself with knowledge and creativity. To me its like a bicycle in that are you riding the bicycle to healthfoods or mcdonalds. Its the freedom of the transportation of knowledge that can be so life-changing and so life-threating at the same time.
