Computers, SmartPhones, Internet !!..Are we really in control, or are these devices controlling us??

It makes me sad that people don’t communicate directly anymore. I hate going to a restaurant to see everyone at the table on their phone instead of engaged in conversation. 🙁 However, I have had it happen where we were all talking and suddenly one person went to look up something and it opened the flood gates that we all thought it was okay and next thing I knew everyone was on their phone looking at email. Uggghhhh
