Skepticism of Technology

I've always been somewhat skeptical of technology and have bloged on this matter (search on "Turkle" in this blog).

Via my friends at ythe Schwartz Communication Institute comes "Why Gen-Y Johnny Can't Read Nonverbal Cues" subtitled "an emphasis on social networking puts younger people at a face-to-face disadvantage" from the Wall Street Journal.

It seems to me that becomingly overreliant on technology can have a negative impact on our ability fo communicate.  We need to proceed with caution here.
