By James Mullan
Abstract
Many of us can empathise with those people who declare they have become "addicted" to the latest digital technology. This might be Twitter, Facebook or a similar technology. Irrespective of the type of digital tool it can be all too easy to find yourself spending significant amounts of time using it and becoming "addicted". But is this really really true? In a recent article Paul Miller from the Digital Workplace Group argues that digital addiction is just a myth. James Mullan discusses whether addiction to the latest tools and technologies is a real problem.
