Have u ever seen anyone with their faces stuck in their phone and looking like nothing else in the world matters around them? The book You-Topian Dreams: "Semiotics And The New Media" May help you realize why. The book talks about us becoming a 2.0 version of ourselves and being less social. The book explains that we are converging with social networking and soon it will be a huge part of us and without it we will feel like something is missing.The book says that the convergence is inevitable the book concludes by saying we forge the future by what we do and be aware of the things we forge.

I agree with the book about us being more sucked into social networking and believing that we will feel empty without it, but I don't agree that it is inevitable. I don't think it will be inevitable because of people rising to stop it such as M.L.K vs racism. I totally agree becoming self indulged into social networking can really make you less social and reduce physical interaction. But I also believe social networking is a great way to spend extra time you have and get involved more with friends you can't see all the time. Social networking is a good thing and a bad thing to society.
