Time Flies When You're Having Phone

from We Have Concerns Hosted by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni

Scientists from James Cook University’s Singapore campus have published a study which seems to suggest that modern technology is affecting perception of time. Individuals who use smart phones and tablets report a swifter passage of time than those in analog information streams. Jeff and Anthony have their doubts about the conclusions of this study, but spend much of their time-discussion trying to pinpoint the exact uses of an Arduino.
