digital tasks - and introductory questioning?

have the digital tasks in our lives taken over our ability to make meaningful choices regarding what we accomplish in our time on this planet?

I find myself making lists frequently to track my progress of completing things while I am at home. And on these lists I find myself writing things like "run cleaner" or "move pictures to backup". I have these tasks that exist to keep order in my digital life. The things i do to maintain or interact with technology work their way into the tasks that i find important for making a successful day.

Is there something wrong with this?

Are digital tasks important? Do they provide meaning? Are they greater or less value than physical or "real" tasks we assign to our schedules?

I want to explore this topic a lot more. I think this should be my major work for the next few months.
