World of Computers (WBprompt1)
Isn't it funny how as times change we all seem to adapt to other forms of communication? When I was younger the only way you could keep in touch with someone was either by picking up a house phone and calling them or by writing a letter. Now by popular demand we all use Myspace, Facebook or something similar to a blog to inform everyone of our statuses. I myself am guilty of this new age invention. While I was pregnant I would write a weekly blog on Facebook to keep my family and friends updated on the nine month journey to becoming a mother. Everyday some new way will arise at which we no longer will talk face-to-face. Isn't it important that we keep that form of communication alive? As I was watching the news the other night, I was shocked to hear that texting had become such a problem! Lawmakers are trying to make texting illegal while driving. I sure hope I was not the only one who cringed at the thought of people being unaware of there surroundings. This initially was an invention that was meant to help you communicate more conveniently rather than dangerously? I suppose as every new and improved form of communication comes out, we will be able to overcome the short falls we call not paying attention.

I feel like as a society we have really lost touch with person to person contact. Everything, I feel, has become cold and turgid.
