Cell Phone Addiction

Today 5% of people said they would chose their cell phone over there friends. Will this number increase if technology determinism keeps it's current course?

As time goes on, cell phones in particular are becoming a necessity more than a luxury. The world as we know it relies on technology to function at a fast and efficient pace. Phones connect you with the outside world, and almost always play a part in your career. With technological advances, these concepts are more prevalent.

This also means that if you do not have the latest form of technology, you are behind in many aspects of society including school, daily activities, and personal connections. The picture below demonstrates this, but also shows the disconnection with personal contact.


Younger generations are growing up with technology, already making it a way of life. This supports the argument that the statistic of people choosing cell phones over friends will rise.
