because today’s smartphones can do a lot of things like play games, take pictures, access the Internet, check the weather, and because smartPhones are lighter to carry than a laptop or desktop computer. not to mention that a smartPhone has a touchpad that you can control with your finger. Even so, some apps such as Instagram or Angry Birds only work on a smartPhone. that’s why it’s very addicting.

Oh please, is baby boomer Jim Davis going to go with the same tired, played, lazy complaint about everyone using phones too much like nearly every other cartoonist on the funnies page these days? _
So many comments from portable electronics nay-sayers. It reminds me of a person who is offered a magic lamp that when rubbed will offer a solution to any problem, knowledge and wisdom, entertainment and friends, and help that can simplify one’s life in a million ways. And the person says, “No thanks, I don’t need a lantern because the sun is out.”
The answer to Jon’s question is because everyone’s much more comfortable inside the digital world because we all want to escape from harsh reality of the analogous real world such as pollution, poverty, crime and natural disasters. That was the whole point of the movie The Matrix. Humans are inclined to escape pain and trouble, they don’t want to stay in Wonderland and follow the rabbit.

It’s common knowledge, but I’m going to say it anyway.
