Easier to start...

As the people of our world become increasingly connected, new portions of the world are exposed to the technological revolution.  As more and more people become aware and concerned, it is likely that they have a better chance of taking action.  As individuals start to take action, new ideas will start developing all over.  The places that have the most "connectivity" will develop stronger personal relationships, and in my opinion; have the potential to be more efficient.  Schmidt and Cohen state that every society in the future will experience different forms of protest, in which communication technologies are used to organize, mobilize, and engage the international community.

  1. It is interesting to think that will all the negative attention that social media receives for de-personalizing relationships that it could instead have a positive impact on communication and help to "develop stronger personal relationships." I don't know that I agree with this statement. I do believe that in the work place there is definitely the ability to become a stronger organization, studies have shown that the way our generation and even younger communicate is drastically different because of the multitude of impersonal communication methods that have become available to us.
