Sherry Turkle: Connected, but alone?

In her TED Talk Sherry Turkle talks about technology and being connected with one another.
Sherry Turkle claims that technology has taken us places we dont want to go to. After doing lots of research she has found out that technology is so psychologically powerful that it changes not only what we do but who we are. She gives multiple examples of her own daughter and how she has evolved  through the use of technology.

Sherry Turkle claims that we text and use our phones EVERYWHERE, from meetings and classes to funerals. This constant use of cell phones is setting us up for trouble.

Our relationships with others require work and effort and can be messy. Sherry Turkle claims that we tend to clean them up with technology. She also states that many people say relationships are hard and technology is simple.

We need to change the way we use technology. We need to have real human contact and communication and not communication over a text.
