I think it is a false correlation to assume that technology caused the problem. Way too easy. B/c there are tons of cases where technology has been used to break isolation. Look at what Twitter and YouTube have done. Look up the work of Michael Wesch on YouTube and you'll see who groups of people finding each other, not hiding out.
People are lonely, not b/c they are wearing headphones. People are lonely b/c we have disintegrated the extended and now the nuclear family and replaced it with materialism and false ideologies. So w/ that in mind, I appreciate your POV, but I feel it is not a complete story, nor fully representative of the complexities facing people today. -- dave . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
