Techno-Loneliness

I was traveling yesterday and noticed something that has been bugging me for a while. While we got on the plane a number of people were continued to talk on their cell phones and check their emails even after the stewardess had asked people to shut off their electronics. It was as if they were skin divers about ready to take a deep dive. The fear and stress of being cut off was in the air. As we were five minutes away from landing many had their phones out, ready to turn them on and be reconnected to life.

How many times have you been with someone when they continued to check their emails as you were trying to have a conversation with them? Honestly, I've been on both sides of the table. Isn't this causing ADD? If we aren't comfortable with were we are and would rather be connected to someone elsewhere, after time it's bound to cause a sense of loneliness, longing to be somewhere you're not.

Maybe all of the technology has given us the ability to connect with people but in such a superficial way. At the same time, it's cut us off from the world directly around us causing techno-loneliness.
