Im getting kinda sick of videos like this... Social Networks dont diminish physical experiences unless you want them to. Whenever I feel lonely I dont rely on a facebook post to make me feel better through an accumulation of likes... I nag people out to the pub (be it via text, phonecalls or facebook message). My gratification doesnt doesnt come from the social media platform itself, I just use it as a means of connecting in the real world... I think most, if not everyone does this. The idea that people somehow get lost in a virtual social platform in the way these videos suggest, I just dont quite believe... There may be those that are socially inept that physical interactions are very rare, in which social media is their main source of communication, but I dont believe for a second that without social media they would be better off; quite the opposite, I think theyd just be lonelier. What do you folks think o.O?
