At a party or even a small gathering of friends, most are busy with their heads down deep into their smartphones concentrating on a virtual social network when the real one is right there in reality in front of them.
So true, your article reminded me of one such moment :
We are at a colleague's wedding and my manager clicked it, next day he illustrated it in on slide in whole office, how 4 people sitting in a row are busy with their phones while they should be interacting. This was so embarrasing but yeah true and something we need to realise strictly.
Yeah it's kinda sad the society has changed into this. I hang out with people, who will take the phone away! As a joke ofcourse, but mostly we understand that we should put our phones away.
Right, we understand it all but still are so captivated by our phones most times.
Yup, this is exactly my point. We need to change this.
