From blogging to rss to our future of becoming robotic



I think society is on the upward climb toward becoming more and more robotic each and every day. What happened to being personal with friends like sending birthday cards, get well cards and cards or letters of interest? All that seems to be replaced by who says what on which blog. Loving comments are also being replaced by email--I miss the days when a letter would come in the mail. I miss sitting down with a cup of tea and reading about what is occurring on the other side of the mountain. Granted I understand blogs are a means in which to reach out to friends and foe but are they also not a means in which we become distant from those who once gave us such delight and interest? I feel as though we are becoming more and more like machines, unfeeling, uncaring, cold and distant. Just my thoughts, if you'd like to share yours, please do so.
