A recent survey by BT and VisitBritain revealed that around 66 percent of Brits would rather be spending time online than with their loved ones. 37 percent of those surveyed decided they would take their laptop on vacation instead of boots. It's not news that we are in a connected world, but as we go social on the web what happens to our physical behavior?

It's time to take a step back from the digital distractions and observe this change.
