You’ve probably been out to dinner and observed couples who should be enjoying their time together preoccupied with their digital devices. In fact you’ve probably seen whole families… mum, dad and the kids all gazing into screens rather than enjoying time talking and laughing together. When I travel by public transport I’m always amazed by the deathly hush that pervades the scene (broken only occasionally by a loud mouth on a phone) because people are busy in their own digital world and no longer talk together.

That’s why I was interested in the Durex social experiment conducted some time ago (and of course if you know what the Durex company manufacture you’d understand that they are very interested in having people preoccupied with each other rather than with their digital devices!).
You can watch what was done and the results here. It’s quite fascinating… a real eye opener.
What’s the lesson for us? Simple, in my belief, at least. Whether it be in your community, your business or within your family, put down that technology and interact with each other. You’ll be amazed at the relationships you will strengthen. (And Durex hopes, at least for the adults amongst us, it may generate even better business for them!).
