"Some analysts have worried that new technologies hurt family
togetherness, but we see that technology allows for new kinds of connectedness
built around cell phones and the Internet. Family members touch base with each
other frequently with their cell phones, and they use those phones to
coordinate family life on the fly during their busy lives. ... A lot of
families treat the Internet as a place for shared experiences. They don't just
withdraw from the family to their own computer for private screen time. They
often say, 'Hey -- look at this!' to others in the household." <br>
