Life in the 21st century, where everyone in the civilized world has a computer (or computer-like device), the internet facilitates regime change, and people would rather connect with folks at the other end of the planet than their next-door neighbour.
And where half the planet is starving and doesn't have a roof over their heads...
The Atlantic's current cover story looks at the phenomenon of social media and how it's taken over our lives.
Kind of reminds me of a humourous picture that circulates over Facebook every so often...
I, for one, even when I take time off away from Facebook, probably check it once in the morning. I'm glad I only go on Twitter once every couple of months, because I don't want to think about how much time I'd waste online before actually getting anything done if that wasn't the case...
