A funny thing happened on the way to the communication revolution：we stopped talking to each other
I was walking in the park with a friend recentlyand his mobile phone ranginterrupting our conversationThere we werewalking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and – poof – I was cut off as if I had become absent from the conversation
The park was filled with people talking on their cell phonesThey were passing people without looking at themsaying hellonoticing their babies or stopping to pat their dogsIt seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferred to human contact
The telephone used to connect you to the absentNow it makes people feel absentRecently I was in a car with three friendsThe driver hushed the rest of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phoneThere we werefour friends driving down the highwayunable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make communication easier
Why is it that the more connected we getthe more disconnected I feel？Every advance in communications technology is a setback (退步) to the closeness of human interactionWith email and instant message over the Internetwe can now communicate without seeing or talking to one anotherWith voice mailyou can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyoneIf my mom has a questionI just leave the answer on her machine
As almost every contact between human beings gets automaticthe emotional distance index goes upPumping gas at the station？Why say goodmorning to the assistant when you can swipe you credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact？Making a deposit at the bank？Why talk to the clerk who lives in the neighborhood when you can put your card into the ATM？
More and moreI find myself hiding behind email to do a job meant for conversation or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talkThe technology devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier
I own a mobile phonean ATM carda voicemail telephoneand an email accountGiving them up isn’t a choiceThey are great for what they are intended to doIt’s their unintended results that make me upsetWhat good is all this geewhiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out Gee whiz？

A funny thing happened on the way to the communication revolution：we stopped talking to each other
I was walking in the park with a friend recentlyand his mobile phone ranginterrupting our conversationThere we werewalking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and – poof – I was cut off as if I had become absent from the conversation
The park was filled with people talking on their cell phonesThey were passing people without looking at themsaying hellonoticing their babies or stopping to pat their dogsIt seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferred to human contact
The telephone used to connect you to the absentNow it makes people feel absentRecently I was in a car with three friendsThe driver hushed the rest of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phoneThere we werefour friends driving down the highwayunable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make communication easier
Why is it that the more connected we getthe more disconnected I feel？Every advance in communications technology is a setback (退步) to the closeness of human interactionWith email and instant message over the Internetwe can now communicate without seeing or talking to one anotherWith voice mailyou can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyoneIf my mom has a questionI just leave the answer on her machine
As almost every contact between human beings gets automaticthe emotional distance index goes upPumping gas at the station？Why say goodmorning to the assistant when you can swipe you credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact？Making a deposit at the bank？Why talk to the clerk who lives in the neighborhood when you can put your card into the ATM？
More and moreI find myself hiding behind email to do a job meant for conversation or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talkThe technology devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier
I own a mobile phonean ATM carda voicemail telephoneand an email accountGiving them up isn’t a choiceThey are great for what they are intended to doIt’s their unintended results that make me upsetWhat good is all this geewhiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out Gee whiz？
