题目内容
In the spring of 2012,I moved to the San Francisco bay area with my wife and two young sons.
I tried to get hold of one of my old Nokia cellphones,but they were no longer available.
I remember the exact moment when I realized something important had happened. I was on my bike,cycling to Stanford,and it struck me that a week had gone by without having a phone. And everything was just fine. Better than fine,actually. I felt more carefree and happier. That was in September 2012. I have been phone-free since then.
Here are the most common questions people ask when they find it out. “How do people get hold of you?” Er,they have my online mail address. I still have a laptop,and use it most days. It even works when r'm away from my house or office.
“What if something happened t? your children?” This one always strikes me. My children are eight and four. They are with a responsible adult at all times. I love them more than I could ever say and I love spending time with them but really,why do I need to keep in touch with them every minute of the day? If something happens,there will be always someone there to take care of them.
Then there's my company: “How can you be a tech CEO without using a phone?” I do always borrow phones to see how our new products work on mobile.
