The Curse of the 'G'

How often do you check your phone to see what new updates you have on your facebook or whatsapp or any other app? I think I do it like every 2 minutes. I can't help it. Its like I have been programmed to see what I am missing on even if its just been a few minutes gone by.
 
That my friend is the curse of the 'G'. Why G? Cos it got more popular when 2G and 3G were introduced. There was a time when texting was so popular and if you had one of those Nokia 1100 or 3310 you dint even have to look at the phone to type a message. Any retard could get a hang of it in a day. Its like that now but worse. I bet I am not the only one who feels the same. If you have been using your smart phone for quite a while you would be addicted too. That is unless you have a really really really strong will power or rather you are totally oblivious to technology.

How to break away from this? I've heard there are Internet De-addiction centers. There are times when apps really come in handy, but the other times they can really wait. Anyway I've decided to limit my usage. Maybe buy a phone with the bare essentials. :) Let see where this goes.

To my friends who haven't bought a smart phone yet. Its a DRUG! And unless prescribed in right amounts you are gonna get hooked onto it! ;)
