The Machine Is Us

According to Dictionary.com, Web 2.0 is defined as "the internet viewed as a medium in which interactive experience, in the form of blogs, wikis, forums, etc, plays a more important role than simply accessing information" (dictionary.com) We never think about what we put on the web. As we share pictures, videos, and comments on our blogs, websites, even facebook or myspace we are teaching the web about us. As we move forward we keep teaching the web while we teach others. It is making real life communication easier so we can share our own information, not just information about certain topics and subject. The only question is, where do we draw the line? Can we continue growing in a technology based society where our face-to-face communication dwindles and our relationships become completely over the computer or will we always be able to communicate with ease and have the advancing technology as a helpful guide in our lives?
