Yes, it’s true: I am going offline.
I’m going to cut my digital lifeline: no surfing, no email, no google, no facebook and no Twitter.
Why? Well, it’s part of the research project “virtual happiness“. In that project we try to define the different forms of internet usage and how they are related to certain aspects of happiness. Does being online make you happier?
And… do you have a choice? Can you live without the internet in the modern world?
Exciting questions and I will be telling you more about this experiment before I go offline








Mijn nieuwe boek heet "Uitverkocht!" (mei 2011) en beschrijft de opkomst en de kansen van de aandachtseconomie.
In 2009 schreef ik het boek "Hoe overleef ik mijn inbox". Een zoektocht naar de effecten van information overload, overvolle inboxen en continue afleiding.
