A lot of us, and I include myself in this group, are communicating madly, but are we really connecting to our friends/ family/clients? Between Facebook, twitter, blogs, LinkedIn, and YouTube, the opportunities to “share” are endless, but are we really relating to one another?
Are we substituting electronic messaging for real, substantial conversations? And if so, what is the impact on our businesses and our friendships?
Your thoughts?
My thought is social media is an incredible tool for connecting. But powerful too. So we have to be careful and sensitive in proportion with that added power and effectiveness.
