I too, grew up in a small town, and for us, technology wasn't even really a desire until I grew up and started to attend highschool. Compared to now- I look at my little brothers' generation who are addicted, and trust me, I mean addicted to technology. Oh, what they will miss out on! I am proud to say that until this fall, I was anti facebook, myspace, etc. Stay away as long as you can!
