Mobile phone addiction numbers from Men’s Health a little surprising
My Blackberry Crackberry addiction is documented already, and now so are the relative levels of addiction of the nation. Men’s Health published the most and least “Cell-Addicted Cities” and it includes some surprises. Here are the the least-addicted cities:
1. Hartford, CT
2. Buffalo, NY
3. Baltimore, MD
4. Wilmington, DE
5. St. Louis, MO
6. Rochester, NY
7. Newark, NJ
8. Chicago, IL
9. Bangor, ME
10. Detroit, MI
Bangor makes sense, but none of the others do. All those cities, including Hartford, the so-called insurance capital of the world (or not) with their populations of smartphone-toting professionals and academic communities aren’t heavy users? Chicago? Detroit? Strange. Makes me wonder why Men’s Health chose not to put their methodology on the page. The magazine should really include some form of explaination. How is this calculated? I want to know!
