Much had been written about the way “social media” has and is changing the way humans communicate, socialize and interact in general. Critics warn that technology-based virtual interaction is de-humanizing us as we’re losing our social skills and in some cases even our fragile grip on reality. Proponents point out that it’s a transitional process which has not been fully explored or developed for a long shot and that the best is still to come – that the global human society is becoming progressively more “communal” as we blog, tweet, text and post our holiday photo’s on Facebook for the world to see.
