  Me: What time do you think you'll be home?
  Wife: Um, well, first I need to do x, and then I need to go     
    to y, which will probably take an hour.  And then I might
    swing by z.
  Me: So what time do you think you'll be home?

"I don't find this to be a technological problem, but a people problem..."

Correct. People are mistakenly letting technology take over their lives--for the worse.

Rather than a negligent and shallow rant on technology, I thought it was a rant on society's negligent and shallow relationships.
