Did you know that 93% of Americans now use cellphones or wireless devices, and one-third of those are "smartphones" that allow users to browse the Web and check e-mail? It's a fact, as stated by USA Today. But, does this fact matter to you at all? Are you one of them? If you are, does it feel different talking with someone face-to-face than through the phone or just the difference between the use of technology and human contact.

I have admit that it does has an effect on my social life. With the technology I have around me, I do know the difference. As a person who started out having a computer to someone who has one that has internet now, I notice a big difference. Now it seems like I can't live without it when I used to be able to have just as much fun with it not existing. Now, my sister we don't talk as much as we used to because one of us is always on the computer. Honestly, it's really sad.

Yes, we are having better connections with all the technologies we have today, but in a way we are starting to lose human contact.
