Reality is richer than screens...So what makes this a richer experience than a screen? I mean, scientifically. We need screens, of course. I'm going to show film, I need the enormous screen. But there's more than you can do with these magic boxes. Your phone is not the Internet's door bitch.

Okay, challenge / Leave your phone unlocked and right side up.

Many smartphone users even think it's totally cool to fiddle with their gadgets while zooming along the freeway at more than 60 mph. I once saw some guy on the freeway with an iPad balanced on his steering wheel, swiping with one hand while driving with the other.

For the most part, we've started to wean ourselves off of cigarettes, armed with the knowledge that it was the nicotine telling us that we needed to smoke. Now it's time to similarly wean ourselves off of smartphones when it comes at the expense of our social interactions. It's when we stop depending on them to make ourselves feel less alone that we can actually look up and acknowledge anyone and everyone who's around us, rendering that feeling harmlessly moot.
"Smartphones: The New Cigarettes?", Huffington Post
My world is so digital, I have forgotten what that feels like. It used to be hard to connect when friends formed clicks, but it's even more difficult to connect now that clicks form friends. But who am I to judge? I face Facebook more than books face me...
By pushing computers into the background, embodied virtuality will make individuals more aware of the people on the other ends of their computer links. This development carries the potential to reverse the unhealthy centripetal forces that conventional personal computers have introduced into life and the workplace. Even today, people holed up in windowless offices before glowing computer screens may not see their fellows for the better part of each day.
Marc Weiser, The Computer for the 21st Century
Today’s gadgets are the antithesis of Grandfather Otto’s sharp chisel or Frodo’s knowing sword. The smartphone is a confusing and feature-crammed techno-version of the Swiss Army knife, impressive only because it is so compact. It is awkward to use, impolite, interruptive, and doesn’t offer a good interface for much of anything. The smartphone is a jealous companion, turning us into blue-faced zombies, as we incessantly stare into its screen every waking minute of the day.

What software-based means today, is that these tools are trapped inside a tiny rectangle that sits on your desk. To do your work, you sit at your desk and you stare at this tiny little rectangle. That frustrates me. Because if you think about a lot of the traditional forms of craftsmanship, they take place in a spatial environment.
