Today we had an interesting discussion on our intranet. We spoke about the effect on Internet on our social and academic life. Students post hot views on Facebook, Twitter, MSN, Youtube. This is not surprising as these are most popular topics amongst users the age of my students – teenagers. However, I wonder if people who are comfortable in communicating on the virtual space can continue to sustain face-to-face links with human beings? Or what do we do when the main Internet switch were to be switched off?
