Blog 8: Are We Too Connected?
In today’s world it seems that we are always connected to something. Instead of taking vacations away from everything, we take along our phones and computers and still answer email and post on Facebook as if we had never left home. It is becoming more and more difficult to truly go “off the grid” and be disconnected from the world (though it is easier to do that in parts of Kansas than other places in the U.S.). Do you feel that we are too connected as a society? Or are we not nearly connected enough? Draw from your own experiences and give concrete examples to explain your position on the topic.
