IPhones Paralyze Face to
Face Socialization
Drawbacks
of IPhones -
IPhones has paralyzed the 'social' face to face
interaction with people. At a cafe, I observed a small group of young women having
a brief meeting then all of a sudden there was silence. They were all on
their respective iphones, texting, checking email tweeting or whatever else. Here was a group of people who briefly got together to
only turn around to use their iphones to do whatever else other than talk to
one another. In my view this is inconsiderate., but Another may say, ‘That’s
technology today and it’s OK. This is
the generation we live in. However, this
concept should not be ignored. Face to
Face interaction is indeed very powerful and important. The power of technology
contributes to the paralysis of the face to face interaction or better known as
Social Skills.
Where does one draw the line? What experiences have you’ve had with this?
