Some reminiscing on headphones for when I'm on the move.

Since I got some Otium Beats Bluetooth headphones about a mouth ago, they have become one of my favorite headphones. The sound rather good, and they are comfortable to wear.

Yet, I still find myself going back to my wired headphones from time to time. Those are Miniso berry edition, which I got because they are hands free which is a nice thing to have when on the move. I fall back on them when I want to extend battery life, specially when going out for a walk.

Yet, the best thing both have in common is that both are in-ear headphones. I find this to be the go to solution when I'm picking headphones to pair with my mobile device. I find them more comfortable to wear on the move, and more practical to store on my bag. All this while packing quite a nice sound, which is a nice thing to have.

Still I continue to feel strongly about the 3.5 mm jack on smartphones. Personally, its a must have on my device as an option to be able to continue to listen to music if my Bluetooth headphones run out of battery and I'm not able to recharge them for whatever reason. Or simply to have the choice of which one to use depending on the situation at hand.

I'm really happy with both of my pairs, I choose which one to use depending on what I'm doing at the time. Now that I've experience with some Bluetooth headphones on daily basis, I can say they are worth having them if they fit your needs.

It has become harder to discern information from misinformation.

With the advent of the Internet, and the proliferation of smartphones, we got access to a wealth of knowledge and knowhow like it has never been seen. Almost any tidbit of information we might need to know, or be interested in, is at the tip of our fingers.

Yet, this ease of access has also allowed misinformation to be as easily distributed. Sometimes, its hard to know if the information we are accessing is reliable or not.

It used to be that how information was distributed, was heavily controlled a few interests. Today, while some of those gatekeepers still hold a strong influence on how information is distributed, its a lot easier to access more sources to be able to get a wider view on whatever issues you are interested in. The main problem now, is how to make sure that the content you are accessing is reliable and the sources where they got the information from.

This is why critical thinking is becoming ever a more important tool to understand the content you're interacting with. While there are some source we can trust, still we need to be able to process the information in order to be able to use it effectively. In order to understand the content we access, we need to be able to manipulate it to analyze it.

There is truth out there, but there is also a lot of falsehood to contend with as well.
