Gadgets Aid Liars

[HardOCP News]

Want to tell a little white lie? Apparently the best way to do it is by using your Blackberry, cell phone or other gadget. Think about THAT the next time someone sends you a text message.

The research by UK pollsters 72 Point found that "techno-treachery" was widespread with nearly 75 percent of people saying gadgets like Blackberrys made it easier to fib. Just over half of respondents said using gadgets made them feel less guilty when telling a lie than doing it face to face.
