Our Mobile Addiction
In a recent study conducted by Bright Hand, it was concluded that the majority of people with mobile email-retrieving devices (Blackberrys, iPhones, etc) are “addicted to email”, naturally. The average user checks their email regularly: 5 times a day, while the majority checks their email every time they receive a new message. Some are even so obsessed with their mobile device, that they sleep next to it, just in case an important email arrives in the middle of the night.
To further prove the obsession, 83% check their email while on vacation, 53% in the bathroom and 12% while at church. Ridiculous.
You can read the entire report here.
Thanks to Dylan at theemailwars for bringing this survey to light.
