This is especially important for those of us that work in tech. We’re all extremely attached to our phones. We can’t just sit on the bus anymore. People are faking calls to make themselves look busy and important when they’re waiting for their friends to show up. We go out for dinner with people and we’re more interested in email and text messages. While it’s important to be connected, it’s even more important to be present when you’re interacting with others. Perhaps I don't have much of a set to base this on, but from what I've noticed the ones in tech (at least, the ones well versed in it, not just generic managers and help desk workers -- though their job title does not dictate their actual knowledge, of course)... they tend not to be smartphone junkies as much as the average consumer. Especially not for things like text messages and email. I guess it depends on the person, though. The ambitious startup type might fit the above criteria quite well.
