Renowned media scholar Sherry Turkle investigates how a flight from conversation undermines our relationships, creativity, and productivity—and why reclaiming face-to-face conversation can help us regain lost ground. I like what she is saying, which I summarize as:
- Digital devices have changed who we are and how we interact
- We are hiding behind our devices
- Real-time conversation is messy and uncontrollable
- That is why we are avoiding it
- The ability to edit, delete, undo and redo is shortchanging us
- The 'Share therefore I am' scenario is setting us up to be isolated
- We need to consciously interact with our devices and each other, and cultivate our capacity for solitude.
