In my very own understanding the main idea of speaker's TED talk was that, nowadays people use technology as their connection to communicate each other than communicating face-to-face. They spend most of the their time in technology world rather than focusing on the reality. However, in the ending part of the speaker's presentation she states that, she is hoping that this technology could lead the people go back to the real one just like before, back to real lives, real communities, and real planet.

In my observation, some people can not live without technology. Does technology really provide us the real communication? Better communication? Maybe for some, technology can really provide a real communication, but for me communication is better when its face-to-face, why? Because I can show my true emotion, I can show what I really feel. Just like the speaker said "They are together but not together.", is it because for example you are having good time with your friends, but instead of having good time or bonding you are holding you gadgets. For me that is one disadvantage of technology, instead of having fun with our friends we are letting the technology ruined our ways of communicating with one another. As a user of technology, we must knows how to balance and use it. Because as the days goes by we're letting technology take us places we do not want to and that it because we are getting addicted on it. In speaker's TED talk entitled "Connected but Alone" was a great talk. She fully explained and made great points how technology has affected our ways of communicating. Even though technology has affected our ways of communications with one another, let us still have good and meaningful talks with each other whether it is through technology or reality communication.

I hope that this technology can help us to have a better communication in future. I know that this is not the end, its just a beginning there are still chance to have a better communication in reality than technology. It takes discipline not to let technology steal your time. Don't let technology control you, you control technology.]]> 2019-10-04 14:36:33 UTC https://padlet.com/hermionegranger05/qpi5h382554i/wish/393586141 https://padlet.com/hermionegranger05/qpi5h382554i/wish/393882400 good point... i too hope that technology would help us have a better communication...not ruin communication-YVJ]]> 2019-10-05 10:04:47 UTC https://padlet.com/hermionegranger05/qpi5h382554i/wish/393882400
