We see how technology has changed how people can slack off.
- Students are now using cellphones and texting/instant messaging each other answers during exams as opposed to writing answers on the bottom of their shoe or copying from the person next to you;
- Looking up essays/blogs online and using it as a homework assignment instead of threatening to beat up the geek to do your homework;
- Instant messaging at work to look busy instead of chatting on the phone.
I came across this Dilbert cartoon and found it rather amusing that fully illustrates this.
