» "What is it like to never lose touch with anyone?" Who your mates are in the 21st century
A precis from Mind Hacks of an awesome, awesome piece from the New York Times — direct link here — about how social networking is changing everything about the way we interact, and therefore — by extension — the way we live our lives.
As some of you know, this is something I’m very interested in from a psychological point of view: I can honestly say this is the best overview I’ve yet read.
With it being the NYT, you might need a login to read the piece: I’m not sure. If you don’t have one, it’s worth signing up just for this.
