  • Watching TV was the leisure activity that occupied the most time (2.8 hours per day), accounting for more than half of leisure time, on average, for those age 15 and over. Socializing, such as visiting with friends or attending or hosting social events, was the next most common leisure activity, accounting for 43 minutes per day. (See table 1.)

      The text note a powerful point of the connection of mobility, technology, and communication.  I believe it answer my question of whether technology will be inseparable in the future.  Yes it will because where there is work there is mobility,  technology keeps workers mobile without interfering with the communication needed in the workplace
  • Real-time collaboration tools and instant messaging will leave the email culture far behind, enabling the next generation workers to operate more efficiently.
  • raditional IMs will get a further refurbishing with increased capabilities that could accommodate more business processes ahead of traditional click-to-call facilitie
  • Provider of UC solutions will ensure open standards and more interoperability to their services, thereby eliminating boundaries across business silos
  • Online corporate meetings will be heavily influenced by gaming technologies and 3-D virtual world, giving way to fresh meeting models, and putting a hold on the age old calendar based conference calls.

    The site answer my question of technology and communication being inseparable in the future. It will not be inseparable because people are very mobile, while on the go they still have the power to communicate through technology.
