Gadget Geek's Definition Of Pleasure: The Apple iPad!

Just what is pleasure and how can one experience it? Encyclopedias define the feeling of pleasure as a mental state that humans and even animals experience as positive, enjoyable, or worth seeking. It includes more specific mental states such as happiness, entertainment, enjoyment, ecstasy, and euphoria.


As people, we all have varying levels and causes of experiencing pleasure and in recent studies, there is one distinct form of pleasure that has only emerged and is continually evolving today are pleasures derived from using gadget. This has even evolved to creating new psychological terms because addiction to the pleasures being derived from using different gadgets of today has created different social behaviors. From kids losing their communication with their parents to husbands spending more time holding their tablet PC than their wife and child, the mental and emotional impacts of the positive and negative effects of this newly emerging source of pleasure in the modern world is yet to be revealed.


In recent surveys conducted but concerned Internet professionals, people who are working on their computers who at the same time have their social networking website open loses at least 35% of their productivity. While it seems to be an innocuous act can turn out to be a dreadful source of non productivity in the work place and can be easily remedied by simply signing out of the social network and focusing on their work.


Many young professionals in the United States and in the UK have been "hooked" so to speak to their Apple iPads and many have rationalized that they do it because of work. But an online survey that was done indicates that they hold on to a gadget, particularly their Apple tablet because they are psychologically gratified using it.


But even if not everyone is convinced and appreciate the iPad, conjuring up different jokes and insults even calling it a computerized feminine napkin for tech addicts together with the obvious setbacks that has caused some of the iPad's popularity to decline, still there are die hard Apple fans out there who get a high using it as if they are sniffing cocaine.


Taking care of their iPad is a common practice for these "tech junkies", like maintaining it properly, getting comprehensive iPad insurance right after a few days after purchasing it, and many more. And who wouldn't want to insure iPad coverage for such an expensive piece of electronics? Surely, getting insurance for iPad to protect it from theft, accidental and liquid damages is a logical and sensible thing to do.


But when you see people buying all sorts of crazy contraptions and accessories that would make you think they are way too obsessed with this gadget, it can get a bit creepy. Who would want a strap that enables you to walk with your iPad attached in your hand or chest 24/7 you might ask? The answer is, there's a big company producing this strap by the millions so you better believe these kinds of people are out there!
