The most promising source in this list is the “Can We Talk?” article. It discusses the implications of people constantly being on their cell phones. It mentions that face-to-face conversation has become “a lost art.” My research topic is going to focus more on the pyschological side of cell phone use, and this article discusses exactly that.
