Summary | We carry our smartphone everywhere: bed, bathroom, work, train etc., which can render people addicted. Corine Kibora (spokeswoman at Addiction Switzerland) claims that people can be addicted to social media, news applications, emails etc. When a smartphone disturbs someone's eating, sleeping, or work habits, there is a problem. There can be health issues (eyes tired, sleep disorders) and social issues (personal relations and communication). Kibora suggests setting a schedule; no smartphone during dinner for example.

Marre de ces émoticônes qui remplacent nos emotions
(Fed up with those emoticons that replace our emotions)

Country | Switzerland
Topic Tags | emojis, threat
Summary | The emoji phenomenon is global and growing very fast. Those smiley faces are everywhere and have invaded our lives. They are not just used to express our emotions alone, they also replace them. Yes, emojis are young and fun, but they are also a way to “disempower” human relationships and to be emotionally correct.
