Not like in the good old days. 
 

Hey get off my lawn with that smarty pants phone of yours.

Sorry, I was texting.  What did you say?

We need a like button!

My favorite is when you're on the phone wearing an earpiece (like I usually do) and someone else thinks you're talking to them...

The first few times, I assumed they were homeless and needed to be committed.

Now they should just be committed, ya?

Probably.  

Mobile devices are a widespread obsession here in the Philippines, and not just among teens. 20 years ago, hardly anybody out here in the provinces even had a telephone, much less a camera. We used to drive 2 hours to make a phone call. Now, everybody walks around with their head down, texting. Given the traffic here, it seems rather hazardous. 
 
20 years ago I captured the quintessential photo of rural life here: a guy with a cone-shaped wicker hat, machete hanging from a rope at his waist, walking his karibow (water buffalo) through a rice field. Recently I snapped a more contemporary scene: same guy, but with a baseball cap and AC/DC t-shirt, sitting on a berm in a rice field, texting.

If you had those two photos and could put them together that would be one cool "changes" image!
