phones everywhere
random observation.
I am at Boston Logan. Approx 65 waiting to board. 42 have smart phones or e readers, 2 people have magazines.
the world is now run on phones.
people who slow down on highways and continue long conversations - what do you think of them?

Re: phones everywhere
Print media is dying. Newspapers, worldwide, have been retooling to survive. Here is an example of how small papers like The Guardian are growing big in internet age in spite of decline in print circulation.
Since 2008, the Guardian has been making a major push to appeal to the American market. After a bout of layoffs, it now employs 29 journalists in the United States, primarily in New York and Washington. Online visitors from the States are channeled to the Guardian’s U.S. edition, which features America-centric news. Monday’s page, for example, carried articles about the deaths of firefighters in Arizona and a retrospective of photos from the Battle of Gettysburg.
Not a bad run of scoops for a financially struggling, frankly liberal newspaper with a newsprint circulation of fewer than 160,000 copies daily (which makes it roughly the size of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette) but with a significantly larger digital following worldwide.

Good for them. At this rate The Guardian will be as big as The Tamiltribune.

You missed the whole point. See below
"The NSA stories, in particular, raised the Guardian’s profile to an Everest-like peak. Its video interview with Snowden, conducted by its star American columnist Glenn Greenwald, attracted nearly 7 million unique views worldwide in one day. The total was a record for the paper’s Web site, which is already one of the world’s most heavily trafficked news sites with a high of 41 million unique monthly visitors"

Another random observation.
As you come out of movie, every good looking female will pull out a phone to talk to someone. Who are they talking to? What are they talking about?
How come no one discusses the movie with their movie partner any more?

Re: phones everywhere
If getting tired is due to to low energy or enthusiasm, then you can take up some physical exercises and energy supplements which should help bring up your energies.pravalika nanda wrote:truthbetold wrote:Another random observation.

Re: phones everywhere
iphone users are lazy and useless as the phones themselves. don't pay any attention to them. pay attention, instead to the few women who carry an android
where are you going?
