Blogpost 9/27
The last two paragraphs in "Alone With My Email" talk about how the internet is breaking apart communities. There is no more "breeding" of ideas. The internet has become a big place and it will eventually become bigger. When it grows, there will be so many things on the internet that no one will read them. Every idea will be the same, making it hard to read. Your connection to the world isn't about what you saw or know in the media, it's about the bonds you make in everyday life. The internet is breaking that bond.

I agree with you that you make bonds in everyday life and not on the internet. In the article he said that the best things in life didn't happen while you sat in front of the TV. Technology is growing so fast that eventually it will become totally non-personal.
ReplyDeleteI agree that technology is fast making things less personal. Even schools are becoming less of a personal learning experience and more of another online task to get through on your own. I personally think some things should be kept more traditional with the use of books and whatnot.
