Ways Smartphones are Making Us Dumber

Most people have a smartphone or at the very least access to technology and the internet. With the vast amount of information that people have at their fingertips, it has only marginally advanced humans. Here are a couple examples. You are able to stay in contact with anyone around the world through the use of internet phone services and other mobile application but too many people are using it for keep tabs of exes or family members. Even better, you can use it to text the person right next to you. Books, newspapers, magazines — your smartphone has almost anything you'd ever want to read. But there's also Candy Crush. When are they turning that into a novel? On the other hand though, the internet and technology has opened so many more doors for us in terms of databases. We are now more free to analyze and think critically than before. What are your thoughts about these smartphones? Would you ever go back to regular phone?
