Pros and Cons of the digital age?
    #21719537 - 05/25/15 02:37 AM (8 years, 10 months ago)

I'd like to hear you thoughts. 

Many people feel that the internet and excess TV channels are killing our social skills, and making people more afraid and paranoid of each other, and leading to less friends, loneliness, and obesity.  Kids play in the streets less, and people know less of their neighbors than they used to.   

On the other hand it's obvious that the Net is an amazing tool that lets people connect and share ideas instantly with anyone around the world, meaning YOU can say whatever you want to the whole world whenever you want!!!......an amazing step in our Earth adventure for sure.....

I believe in the future more and more people will start making a balance between going outdoors and connecting with other people face to face, and spending time on the net.  I think we're overindulging in something awesome right now....

Reconnect for real.

The fast flow and easy access to information and knowledge (distorted or not) are the main features for me

The pros are definitely the vast knowledgebase as well as having global connectivity. The cons are the fact that it's turning the younger generation's personability into a vapid wasteland, which mostly produces ideas that it forms based off of digital sources. 

I would imagine the use of hand held devices would have a dramatic effect on someone's IQ. Simply by relying on the device to do the simple things that most have learned to do on their own in the past. Like reading a map or a search engine for basic decision making. What was at first considered a useful tool for all has become a necessary crutch for most.
