We want to reach others but not be interrupted – 2010

October 21, 2010 By : Doug Gulleson

As we become more tethered to technology it is interesting how we “learn” new and interesting skills (Pew Research numbers below):

The phone at night:  2/3rd of adults sleep with their cell phones next to their bed

Making contact:  17% of cell phone owning adults say they have physically bumped into a person or object while talking or texting

Adults who text:  84% of text-messaging adults say they send and receive texts “just to say ‘Hello’.“

Out the land line:  23% of American have only a cell phone and no land line for making calls.

Doug Gulleson loves to scuba dive overseas and makes sure he has his US health care and overseas health care information with him at all times when he travels (check out his diving travels at www.douggulleson.com).  Keep our blog close by you, www.gntravelinsurance.com , for continual updates on the changes with the US health care system.
