Blog post for Technology
In order for us as a society to exist there had to be a technological stage that help us develop and flourish but now that stage is being questioned. Its come to my attention that some of us think websites like myspace and facebook is ruining our society but yet i have to say I would disagree the web pages like facebook has tied our social network even in closer grid I can say i know people who've found love on facebook i know its really vague but its happened billions of people sign on to facebook so why not make it for socially awkward people to speak out and let themselves be heard. The fact is that technology can enrich everyones lives but the key to atrue happy life is to not let technology run your life sometimes a day without all of this mombo jumbo is good to clear your head and to realize its the little things in life that counts.

The line between enjoying and the addiction of social networking, and other technological amenities has become very thin. People seem totally dependent on Facebook and other social networking to have a "social life". But doesn’t that concept seem a little contradictory? The idea of socialization is to go interact with people face to face, and not via some website. There are many benefits of Facebook such as keeping in touch with friends who are not local, sharing photos, and seeing what is going on in your friends and families lives who you don’t see on a regular basis. In respects to meeting love interest on Facebook, do you think that maybe those people could have met other love interests out in the real world if they didn't devote so much of there free time to online socialization? We are making it easier for people to develop social awkwardness, because you can pretty much do anything online now a day, for ordering a pizza, to getting a college diploma. It is important to have people skills, and we should not over look this. I’m not saying these websites are bad, just that some people seem to be missing out on life. They are completely consumed with their online personas.
ReplyDelete"its the little things in life that count"..nice.
ReplyDeleteYes I agree that one shouldnt let websites like these take over there lives but the problem with these sites is that they are free and easily accesssable to talk to friends. There are times where im too tired to go out cause of school and work and I decide eh ill go check facebook, everyone does this but some get to the point where they must do it everyday not because they have no lives but because they get lazy, getting on facebook makes them lazier, and they become lazyest....if that makes sense.
