Many people read and type on their smartphones while walking on the street. Is it silly to do it? 

On netivist we already had interesting debates on wether WhatsApp double blue tick was useful or an invasion of privacy, or about the people who use emoticons all the time in their messages. This time we are again talking about smartphones, but on a different topic: our behavior on the streets.

Smartphones have become a central part of many people's lives. They use them to engage in social networking, read news, exchange emails, listen to music, participate in online debates, arrange dates, watch TV, play games, etc., often doing so while walking in the street. Some may consider that messaging it's a good way of using a time that otherwise would not be productive, other may think that it is inappropriate, that turns us into robots, and that it is also dangerous.
