In Disconnect from Tech, Rocket Matter CEO and co-founder Larry Port discusses the current state of our relationship with the internet and related technologies.

Some of the topics addressed include distracted drivers using their wireless phones and PDA's, internet overuse and addiction and where to turn for assessment and help.
