Yes. When you can hold thousands of books in the size of one, makes book shelves obsolete. The problem with technology is that is just allows us to cram more crap into our already busy lives.

I really hate the invention of cell phones. The idea of people being able to text you at any time and then whine if you don't write back right away just irks the crap out of me.
I just had that convo with someone not that long ago..

As if I'm expected to respond when they write or something. I can't keep up with all the texts I get!
my wife told me we had a limit on our texts (we did have unlimited now at 250) and I told everyone and they have complied...

I get that too...

I disagree with cell phones and texts... texting is how I keep in contact with about 90% of people that I communicate with. Generally because one or the both of us are at work, or that it's a question that can be answered without wasting time on a phone call. Even my mom texts these days. :24:

My sister taught my mom how to text a while back, but it was a pain for her. Now that she got her iPhone though, she does it all the time. :24: Hell, my grandma started texting after she got her iPhone, and she's 77. :D

Texting is not the problem per say, it is definitely my mode of communication. I just don't like it being used like a damn chat tool like yahoo. I don't want to have entire conversations over text, just quick to the point shit like take a pic of your boobies and when and where are we meeting for a beer. I hate talking on the phone.

I'd rather have conversations by text with people, especially since it's easier than phone calls.
