” We use technology to define ourselves by sharing our thoughts and feelings even as we’re having them.” (Sherry Turkle) I found this quote very interesting, I have never thought about technology this way. With technology we don’t allow our emotions or ideas to develop before we go send them in a text or a tweet. Communicating on technology can make the person you are communicating with misunderstand what you are actually trying to say. The way we act in technology doesn’t allow us to rethink what we are going to say and in the moment it is easy to say something you might not feel in 30 minutes. This challenged my initial thinking about how beneficial technology is for communication, although it really makes it more confusing with each other.
