The death of conversation...
On the tube in London. As so many 'live' on their smartphones I wonder how verbal interactions between people will be affected long term. The tube has never been a hotbed on conversation so maybe messaging whilst travelling this way is a good thing?
From personal experience my attention span has shortened since the advent of personal mass digital communication, whether that would have happened anyway if I'd never owned a mobile to message and surf with I'll never really know. But I suspect not. Many has been the time I wanted to ditch the smartphone and go back to a button device but they're just too useful, aren't they?
