Tech Hook-up or Disconnect?

Great Star Tribune article in yesterday's paper outlining the delicate balance of technology access vs. overload. In his article Neal Justin points out the pleasures and pitfalls of our over-access to technology. He cited a study by NY media services company OMD, that breaks out the 41 hours per day an average person spends on electronic devices. (Mr. Justin came up with 43 hours, but I pulled the roughly two hours spent on magazines and newspapers). Obviously there are only 24 hours in a day, but the OMD study cites 41 because of multi-tasking. 

How does this info feel to you? About right? You putting in your 41 hours? And is that a good thing?
