I am always interested with technological addiction issue. Thought I would like to share with you all an interesting study conducted
by Lookout with 2,097 adults, age 18 and older within the U.S in 2012. It supported the notion that
people are getting more obsessed with their smartphones and combining their daily routines
with technology-based tasks: 40% check their phones while on the toilet, 30% during a meal
with others and 24% while driving.

My questions are: How obsessed are you with your smartphones? What's the worst 'sin' have you ever committed when it comes to multitasking with your smartphones?
Me? Hhhmm, I did texting while I am driving and during class. Apparently that's common particularly if compared with shocking findings from the 2013 Mobile Consumer Habits study conducted by Harris Interactive for mobile company Jumio, which I found in Time article in July 2013: 9% of Americans claim to have actual sex while texting.

The toilet checking kind of grosses me out -- but my husband does it. I'm pretty sure that he enters the bathroom so he can tweet, etc. without me bugging him.
