Make Offline Normal Again

It is a technological miracle, really. Wherever you are, you are in touch with the whole world. And, the whole world is in touch with you. All day and all night long, you are reachable. From a video of your nephew's swimming test to a headline you were not waiting for. It all gets pushed to you, but going online used to be your own decision.

Mona helps you interrupt the update reflex and decide when and where you are reading that message.

People on the metro, all on their phones
Then

Offline was simply normal.

You went online only when you decided to. To check your mail. To look something up. Or to read the news.

Now

You are always online.

For most people the reflex to reach for their phone is too strong to resist. Even when you are somewhere beautiful.

Mona

Dial in, like the old days.

Mona puts a little friction in the way of that reflex. It slows you down and rations your time online, so you do not lose an hour to cat videos.

Dial-Up Networking

Remember that sound?

Turn your sound on and dial in. This is how going online with Mona feels: a small ritual, with a beginning and an end.
