LET'S TAKE A WALK ACROSS THE STATES!!

DO YOU TEXT AT THE TABLE?

We've been all there. Seemingly enjoying a nice conversation with a friend when you suddenly realize you've been talking to yourself past ten minutes while your friend has been texting, Instagram-ing or Tinder-ing.

Matthew Abeler, a student at the University of Northwestern of St. Paul with a keen sense for observation, noticed this as well. He began thinking about how technology affects our relatioships and the types of messages we send to our friends and families when we choose to use our phones instead of engaging in conversation. So, "Pass the Salt" was created.

What's you opinion about texting ?

Are we addicted to technologies?

Write a brief comment after watching this video guys...enjoy!!
