Newspaper Log- Thursday April 1st

Today I read a pretty interesting article in the Business section of the paper. It was called, "Imaginary Chats and Texts When a Quick Getaway Is in Order." The article brought to our attention the different types of apps that you can buy for iphones and other smart phones that can get you out of an awkward conversation. I can't believe that there are actually apps made now for getting out of a conversation. I feel like it's promoting us to lie.... especially when we get a fake phone call from our "mom" telling us dinner is ready. It's a clever idea, but I think it's crazy that technology has come this far.
