<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

The smartphone has made conversation/comunication great but it has also made it a barrier. My friends all have them, hell im typing on one and posting this on here....but sometimes i feel disconnected in conversation when out with friends/meeting new people...showing a picture of this or facebook post of this...playing music you think is great ect. Its like it has become a conversation starter. I understand its great for lighthearted talk but i recall a time when that wasnt necessary.. yeah we'd pull out our phone to text but it wasnt to entertain for most of the time we'd hang out..(folks on here recall when they weren't invented).So wtf happened to genuine eye contact in conversation? Ive done this many times too so its not like I dont. I just hope everyone notices this change because I feel our human relationships will be increasingly harder to make if one's first few conversations revolve around you looking up and down at your phone and not on the people you have met and talk to. I think there should be one day a year when all data is cut from smartphones and only you can send/recieve phone calls/texts. Just to prove a point to people. Feel awkward waiting in line for coffee? Well you cant scroll through facebook or reddit (well you could fake text but I recall feeling awkward doing that)... wow I feel like my parents ranting about this lol
<bot>: Smartphones have made communicating great but also difficult. A dissconect with friends/meeting new people at times...implications for forming future geniune relationships with people.
