Is technology connecting or disconnecting us?

Smart phones, Facebook, instagrams, tweets, texts, emails, videos, photos, tags, posts and etc. wow!! Technology does make our lives more convenient, doesn't it? We can be in touch with everyone at any time.
However, all these distractions are impediments to the ability to immerse ouselves in each place we find ourselves in.
Are you connected to your food while at the dinner table or are you browsing through Facebook?
Do you sleep? Or do you sleep with your phone beside your bed?
Are you enjoying the concert you paid a lot of money to see or are you constantly taking pictures and uploading to Facebook?
Is your child talking to you or are they playing games of iPad?
Are couples talking to each other during dinner or are they on their phones?
Do people talk to each other anymore in public? At the supermarket, bus, train, parks and so on?
How much are you allowing technology to separate you from the present moment or from yourself?
