Yeah, I'm a college student and I rolled my eyes at that one. I can think of countless interactions where people think they're discreetly checking their text messages and it is so irritating to be on the other end of that. The article has a great message, but unfortunately I don't think most people are conscientious enough to deliberately change how they use technology and it is just so easy to check your phone when there is a lull in a conversation. Technology has been beneficial in many ways, but it has a tendency to be incredibly antisocial as well and I don't think we've learned to compensate for that yet.
