Is Social Networking Actually Making Us Less Connected...And Less Human: One MIT Professor Thinks So

Image via Wikipedia

What is social media doing to us? An ironic question I guess since you are reading this on a blog, and likely on your phone or iPad! One MIT Professor, Sherry Turkle, argues that all our technological connections are destructive to our real connectedness.�The Guardian describes the situation in its opening its coverage of her book:

"A behaviour that has become typical may still express the problems that once caused us to see it as pathological," MIT professor Sherry Turkle writes in her new book, Alone Together, which is leading an attack on the information age.
