If a person is attending a workshop or for that matter a college class, it is their choice if they want to be engaged or not. I would much rather a person be blogging (for example) about what I am presenting than chatting with the person next to them. Leave them open!

The college lecture case is relatively uninteresting. Your attention, interaction or even presence is neither required nor noted in a college lecture. The much, much more interesting question is the habits we should use in schools where kids have laptops. I think telling them when NOT to use their laptop is essential.
