As a product of today's advancements, I must say that I can relate while reading "Flight From Conversation", as it talks about how this generation is likely caught up with the technology surrounding us. Sherry Turkle mentions a lot of scenarios which are relatable to real-life situations and one of them is that telecommunication devices have prohibited individuals to have a face-to-face conversation with each other. Nonetheless, technology enables us to have a lot of alternative ways to communicate to other people in different parts of the world but I am certain that through face-to-face conversation, it allows each and every intellectual to have a better connection with each other and enables them to convey their true expression and feelings. Also, people tend to seek for companionship that they can't get from others, which is why most of us are now dependent to what technology has to offer. This is one of the many reasons why technology has gained its essential value to us humans, we want them to become our very own best friend so that we can have someone to lean on when we need someone the most. Although, as time passes by we are unaware that we are already leashed on to technology like dogs since we are becoming dependent to it. The youth of today's generation are very much likely to be prone to it since they're already exposed to technology at a very young age.
Do you agree?
