My phone is powered down in my pocket unless I need to call someone. My friends and family know it's easier to reach me at work (always there). I'm not going to save a life over the phone, so whatever it is, it can't be that dire. I believe it's removing peoples abilities to think for themselves or wait to have a need fulfilled. You're all going to turn into a bad version of the 'Borg', with an ever expanding (or is that shrinking)collective mentality... "should I do this?" becomes a question no one answers themselves anymore. Plan ahead, be prepared, decide, act and accept responsibility for your decisions and actions. We used to call it 'being an adult'.

Text messages used to be sent by telegraph.

Then came the phone

Then came the cell phone

Now we're back to text messages.

We're devolving.

didnt email come about the time of cell phones...?!

i text alot. first off i get unlimited texts and only 450 min with my plan.

secondly when i am places i cant just be sitting on the phone chatting with people i can ask what i need when i get a second and they can respond when they get time. which also leaves me to see the answer when i have time again(as in during work hours among other times)

I just find it odd that we're all carrying around these little marvels of technology and we're using them to send text messages to each other. That's like using an M-16 as a rock.

Because text messages are faster, simpler, cost less, and are more reliable? I am sorry that sometimes the rock is the best option.

I'm not bashing text messages. I use them too. Not while riding.

But I still find it odd that that's what we're using smartphones for when they're capable of so much more. Like using an M16 as a rock. Yes, it works as a rock, but it can do so much more.

Rocks are everywhere M16s are not. So a crowd with rocks will always have ammo when one man with an M16 runs outta ammo : )

Not if you use the M16 as a rock. Or a bat. Or a really long knife. Fix Bayonets!
