Did you see the story this week about teens and texting? Some researchers liken texting to a narcotic. Nielsen Research says teens send 3-thousand texts a month and a lot of us spend over 8 hours a day in front of a screen, either computer, PDA or iPad.But it was cultural media this week that brought the story home. A recent episode of TNT's "Rizzoli and Isles" had a group of kids touring the police station. Rizzoli was doing her best to talk to the kids about her job as a detective, but the kids were too busy texting to pay attention.
Today, once again, the comic strip "Zits" (seen above) nailed the whole thing in just one panel. Less is more. But not apparently, when it comes to texting!
