Not too long ago, people walked
with their heads up, looking at
the water, the sky, the sand and at
one another, talking. Now they
often walk with their heads
down, typing.

The
"looking-glass self"
is a psychological
concept that
suggests we
develop our sense
of self based on the
perceptions of
those we interact
with.
Image source: Zachary Berinstein
One of the differences between our
self-image in real lifeand online
is more ability to change our look,
and also mask our identity.

Routine photoshopping to create a more
'likeable' self, or simply choosing photos that
seem more like the visual self we want to
present.

Youth, in particular, are trying out simpler
“instant gratification” options —
Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest and Instagram.

You want to dress like your peer group because
then your peer group will support you. If you
dress like a celebrity when your peer group is
dressing , you can be ostracized.

When I asked comedian
Chelsea
Perettiwhy[people share
selfies] she jokingly
responded “loneliness
and desperation for
attention are crucial
ingredients.”

I also want them to understand, through the choices
they make, much more than simply that what you post
as a kid will still be around in adulthood.

It's that problem of the distinction between private
and public is very porous and some people would say
that distinction no longer exists.

E-mail, Twitter, Facebook, all of
these have their places — in
politics, commerce, romance
and friendship. But no matter
how valuable,
they do notsubstitute for conversation.
Image source: http://www.effectiveattraction.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/FirstDateQuestions.jpg
These days, social media continually asks us
what’s “on our mind?,” but we have little
motivation to say something truly self-reflective.
Self-reflection in conversation requires
trust.

Ishare,therefore I am.
We use technology to
define ourselves by
sharing our thoughts
and feelings as we’re
having them.

We expect more from technology and less from one another
and seem increasingly drawn to technologies that provide the
illusionof companionship without the demands of
relationship.
Image source: http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/19700000/Heather-being-levitated-by-a-magician-heather-graham-19764930-1084-1084.jpg
There we are so
busy communicating
that we often don’t
have time to talk to
one another about
what really
matters.
Image source: http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2013/5/9/1368120911030/Snapchat-008.jpg
During the years I have
spent researching
people and their
relationships with
technology, I have
often heard the
sentiment
“No one is listening to me.”

Employees asked for
casual Fridays;
perhaps managers
should introduce
conversational
Thursdays.

Human relationships are rich; they’re messy and
demanding. We have learned the habit of cleaning
them up with technology.
Image source: http://www.puzzlepuzzles.com/imatjes/mom-laughing-baby_4ddd2c966cb01-p.jpg
We need to remember — in between texts and e-mails and Facebook
posts — to listen to one another, even to the boring bits, because it
is often in unedited moments, moments in which we hesitate and
stutter and go silent, that we reveal ourselves to one another.
