I seem to be giving up on modern technology after being totally enveloped in it for the past decade. Fountain pen, vinyl, feature phone, automatic watch etc.

Maybe it's a side effect of the recession, maybe I don't like what the internet/technology is becoming, but I'm realising that these older products are in many ways better.

A watch that doesn't run on a battery and is a work of art; an album that's collectable and real; a phone that lasts weeks on the same charge; a pen that feels more like I'm using some sort of artistic tool and so on.
