Forums > Living in Kunming > Too much communication

Does anybody besides me think this can be a problem? I'm referring to wechat, texting, phone calls, social websites, tweets, a million photos of self or other, videos of people doing ordinary things, phone sales, constant music, realtime communication of whatever, obsessive fact-checking etc. etc. ad nauseum.

Then there's ad tracking, profiling, spying, credit info etc., much of which seems to accompany the above.

@ Bamei: Yes, the Golden Age, after the Mongols were out of power and before the Qing Dynasty was firmly established in the area. Even then, however, some thought back fondly on the great days of the Nanchao Kingdom...

Have to disagree with Michael, although there are indeed some who fit his description. But then I'm not much into 'fashionable'. I do think wavy or curly can be a problem for many.

P.S. Dolphin, your dating of 'dinosaurs': "Hua Yang Guo Zhi, a book written by Chang Qu during the Western Jin Dynasty (265–316), reported the discovery of dragon bones at Wucheng in Sichuan Province."
Well, I guess they could have been dragon bones...

Hopefully somebody will be paying attention to this kind of thing while they are busy banning those polluting swimmers - or is the water in fact not clean enough to swim in? My impression is that it is clean enough.

OK, cloudtrapezer, agreed. Tourism is an industry run on an absurd basis that produces contradictory demands in the promotion of profitable businesses dependent on catering to rather absurd (especially in the case of ethnic tourism) dreams of a relatively new tourist industry, and I agree with what you say about the Chinese media. The contradiction evident in this recent scarp between local vendors and, apparently rather arrogant, tourists. The route this kid of development is taking, however, is not likely to get less contradictory as the tourist industry become less 'new' - the best you'l get is a 'PC', smug, attitude among those who benefit from it and still consider themselves above it all.

I'm not a health foody but the few meals I've had here have been really good and, yeah, I'll be happy to go back alone to sample all the rest of them. It's also not a bad place from which to people-watch the street below.
