"In a paleolithic pre-facebook era" texting while at an event would be considered rude. But in this new era constant connection, many people are to involved in their own social world to notice this rude behavior. According to CTV's digital news evangelist "[their] behaviour is well within the boundaries in a social-media age." But some still consider the act public texting to be "rude, period." In a recent survey by Zoosk "[people] are losing [their] one on one people skills." The constant bombardment of rude behavior has made this act of "multi-tasking" the norm. This obligatory rudeness is evident in a survey by the website Retrevo, which shows that "10% of people under 25," that were surveyed, "didn't see anything wrong with texting while having sex!" Technology has invited antisocial behavior under a guise of self expression. In many restaurants " 'no cellphones' is the new 'no smoking'." In Vancouver’s Upintheair Theater has section of a balcony reserved for texters bloggers and twitter users.

      In today's society people have a problem with "cell-fishness." The frequency of multi-tasking when your conversing with someone, who is right in front of you, is ridiculous. Being inconsiderate by not giving someone your full attention when you're with them is appalling. How ever the damage is done. We have been enticed by the whimsical siren song of technology, there is no going back to the age before cellphones. Cellphones have become the median of communication and sociability, they've become intertwined into every aspect of the modern day life. A good way to approach the rudeness of some people would be to have certain times when using your phone would be okay. When you are alone or not disrupting anybody with your phone usage, would be an appropriate time to tweet, text, or blog. Certain instances or emergencies will have to permit the use of a phone. Your phone shouldn't be the one controlling you. Cellphones need to be balanced with real world conversations and interactions and staying connected.
