Spouse or Computer? Ask the Americans!

Gone are the days when American people loved to spend more time with their spouses. today, if you hear them saying "Honey, I'm home", don't assume anything; you may be wrong though. They are addressing their home computer, not their spouses. The survey conducted by Kelton Research shows that 65% of Americans spend more time with their computers than they do with their spouses.

The survey underlined the fact that the Americans are increasingly becoming devoted to technology, thus ignoring their spouses and kids. Three years ago, not more than 50/60 percent of Americans were dependent on their computer. However, today at least 84% are completely dependent on computer and Internet. Ironically, the average American spends 12 hours a month dealing with and trying to fix computer problems.

The trend is inevitable. Is there is a solution to it? Perhaps not. The computer and Internet technology seem to have taken people completely under its fold. There is no escaping route.
