Week 3 EOC: My Demographics

Echo Boomers see technology as a way to socialize instead of face-to-face methods.
I gotta say i agree with these fact, thanks to the development of technology in the last 15 20 years we have noticed how people started changing the way they interact between each other. Social networks are probably the strongest influences on peoples everyday life, now days we keep up with friends and coworkers through facebook, instagram or twitter instead of having a conversation face to face we rather just check out their profiles to see what are they all about. I'm not sure if this is positive or negative for our society, i think being able to communicate with others via email or internet is awesome but is also making people forget about their intrapersonal skills, a lot of people can't hold a conversation face to face anymore some others can't even hold a conversation over the phone, so when the time comes and they have to get out there to approach people maybe because of work or school they find themselves on a weird position because they're so used to just text or email between each other that they don't even know how to start a conversation.  Taking advantage of technology is great and we should take it as far as we can but we can't forget we are humans not machines and having a conversation face to face shouldn't turn into a uncomfortable situation or a problem.
