@PBPStelzy @FDUBaseball @CSUB_Baseball Thanks for the shoutout! We lasted two innings at the field tonight, little Maizy still not doing great. Happy to hear your little girl is doing better! :)
@_bailey_r I honestly only see prices and control continuing and not relenting. It will be interesting to see how creative people start getting to work around potential road blocks like overpriced internet.
Watching my Roadrunner husband, #1 J Rowley in the CSUB Baseball game tonight! Tuning in with @PBPStelzy - great commentary! Let's get some good runs in!
@kylie_rowley I think back to my childhood and how often I went outside to enjoy time with friends. Now when we get together we just sit around on our phones or play games. We've lost that balance. #COMM3120
@korrinolson @Marissa03931954 So, Korrin, is there any answer for how we find balance in technology? To me it seems the world is going to continue to tip towards being 100% technology run/reliant #COMM3120
@zachwatts19 I do think that. It is 1 of the reasons I have a fear of things like twitter cuz #censorship isn't really possible. Social media sites are increasingly pedofiles' and predators' stomping grounds.. So the ?? is, when is it a tool&when is it not worth it? #COMM3120
Social media is a tool for people to use. Like any tool, it is up to the person wielding it to determine how it is used. Therefore, I believe that social media can be both good, and bad. #COMM3120
@alexissmeier @Becks_42 I would say, yes! Not a direct connection, you are right. But becuase I am able to follow ppl on social media, whenever I bump into them in real life, I am able to follow up on their lives! So maybe it has the potential for connection?
I agree that we as a community need to work on not being so judgmental. But, as we saw with Morozov, realists tend to be the MOST judgmental... When you get on your feed, aren't you scrolling to judge and compare yourself to others? #COMM3120
@Marissa03931954 I agree that we need to balance, but I think it is obvious that the majority of the population does not understand HOW to balance. Are we really in control of our technology - or is it in control of us? #COMM3120
@JustineGamble18@kasslikesdal@DeuelPaige This just supports the notion that people are not just posting their lives on social media, but posting what they want their lives to look like. So perception is scewed, cuz even the ppl posting don't live like they do on social media. #COMM3120
@DeuelPaige I think you bring up a good point. Can we really control what happens on a free, open to the public, social platform? It makes me worry about content that our children or loved ones "accidentally see"
