Connections all over



Social networking is the new way for people who have adapted to communicating and socializing in the 21st century. People are able to know what other people are doing within seconds. It's pretty amazing to think about. If my friend in England updates her status about her trip to France, I can know about it within the minute she posts it. The whole definition of social networking has been altered and it hasn't been until the last few years that we as a tech based society have realized and really seen how this has come about. Internet social networking is a concept that people living in the 21st century need to grasp. It makes life so much easier. It makes forming a relationship of any kind a little less painful and a little more exciting. The downside.. it's a little less personal. Well, it's really just a matter of taste whether you like sharing anything and everything about yourself on the Internet or not.

  1. Sean, it seems you are pointing out a real dilemna in our evolving world - the value of human relationships. How do we value human relationships? As you point out, social networks allow us to easily make numerous connections and relationships with others. What's more important - or valuable - quantity or quality? Has the new technology tipped the balance for us?
