A mental state in which overwhelming use of technology alters behavior usually negatively, but not exclusively negatively in relation to social functionality.
The men and women lost interest in one another. Instead of taking each other out on dates they stayed home and played with their Iphones.
Joe was really trying to get Sally's attention by making eye contact. She was making love to her Iphone so much she didn't notice.
Although there were 20 people sitting together in a room, they all were on their Iphones and wouldn't talk to one another. They were in a state of deep technological hypnosis.

Get the Technological hypnosismug. Crazy technology means common shortcuts or very basic skills (simple technology) that blows someone’s mind. It can also be applied to broader scenarios like anything you find amazing but quite common to others.
Origin: When we were doing a group assignment at uni, a team member tried to fit a table in a page but it didn’t work because that table had too many columns. Then the team show him how to switch that page to landscape. Then he said “Oh that’s crazy technology!”
Example1: Context: An excel guru colleague showed me how to auto resize all both width and height of excel spreadsheet. He selected all first and then clicked any boundary in the selected area. Then the whole spreadsheet was auto-resized. Before I learned about this, I manually resized spreadsheet by clicking each boundary. So this is “Crazy Technology”.

Get the technology yearsmug. When you play the most amazing game of Escape From Bitches and you use a sight like the PSO and align the lines on the scope to the size of the person to get the right drop off without adjusting your scope. Very innovative technology.

Get the Russian Technologymug. When you ask your parents for the latest PlayStation, but instead you get older, more obscure gaming console Commodore CDTV / Philips CD-i / Casio Loopy because your parents don't want to get addicted to video games. Same as when you ask your parents for the latest smartphone, but instead you get Texas Instrument calculator that has always been the same since 1995, a Jewish flip phone, an MP3 nugget, and a digital camcorder because your parents don't want to get addicted to smartphone.
When I asked my parents for the latest PlayStation, I ended up with a Commodore CDTV instead, highlighting the classic parental technology mismatch.
