Were we actually busy before the cell phone or did the cell phone make us busy, that is the question? This debate doesn’t go back as far as the chicken and egg debate but it’s getting close. The people in favor of busy before the cell phone will claim that people worked very hard before it’s invention and their is no arguing there but was every second busy? Did they check their hands for an update on their social media page? Did they wait by snail mail to receive the latest contact from the outside world? I guess my bias is seeping through but then again can you claim to busy with reading someone’s tweet while another is hunting for tonight’s dinner or working on a paper declaring independence? This debate will not end here especially since I just received a new Facebook friend. Who could it be I guess I can leave a little later for work.
