Has social media made us less social?


Has social media made us less social? Poll conduct on a debate website, showing over 70% being affirmative. People have questioned:

Where are the days when we had to actually make an effort to talk to people? Face to face interaction? The time when you had to ask questions and actually learn things about the person you were interested in...Now its all on facebook, twitter or instgram for all to see and know. No effort in that. Why actually talk when you can text? Why go on a date when you can Skype or face time? It just seems that social media has taken the effort of out of true social interaction, it is all about whatever is easier and faster.

This picture showing how human interation was lost before internet social media was born.
We can argue that it is the technology that made us losing our social abilities.
