Our in-class discussion today about the invasiveness of technology in everyday life was excellent. For this posting let’s continue this discussion and reflect on the impacts of technology (e.g., cell phones/texting, Facebook, Skype/MSN Messenger, blogs, etc.) on our interpersonal relationships with friends, family and significant others.
As a side note: some students were asking me about Dr. Bugeja’s research and our joint projects so I thought I should post these links:
Bugeja's book site: http://www.interpersonal-divide.org/
