Oojason: Yes, I do agree that people use it absolutely everywhere, I just gave work as an example. Some people can’t refrain themselves from using their phones. Heck, I don’t understand the need to use a smartphone while in the bathroom. It’s as if the world will crumble if they don’t check every single tweet and tumblr post at every solitary second.
It’s convenient if you want to take a few pictures and video clips during a sporting event, concert, show. Just as long as you’re not filming the entire time. I’ve cut back on taking pictures and video during concerts. It gives me something to remember the evening, and to use as a wallpaper on my phone. Obviously, it should be secondary, or else why go see a live concert, if you’re going to spend all your time looking at your phone.
