BlackBerry connects us?

BlackBerry. iPhone. Others.

My friend sent in a question: What do you think the usage of BlackBerry to our social life? Is it annoying? Disturbing? Or it helps us socialise?

It got me thinking what my BlackBerry has done for me. With all honestly, it is keping me connected 24/7. And guess what. That is a problem. As much as I would LOVE to defend smartphone's honour, it does get on your nerves. There is a time and place for everything. With a smartphone, there is NO such rule. It may be 3am in the morning and you WOULD still be connected to receive something that may or may not be relevant to your brain. At times, you may even read something you wish you didn't. OR you may be having the best time in the world only to receive an e-mail that stirs up your anger. Oh yes, that is what you signed on for once you own a smartphone.

Don't get me wrong, I love my BlackBerry and wouldn't trade it for anything else (Maybe for SE Xperia). But it does have the tendency to be annoying. To yourself and the people around you.
