I DO believe that technology has made people desensitized and less personable towards one another and to the society. HOWEVER, I was thinking today, whats so bad about technology, advancements, and higher forms of communication? I feel people just think negatively towards it cause it is a change in our daily lives and in our own society as a whole. And if some people aren't compatible or just dont want to make the change in their lives; that's when people start to make negative comments about it. YES, I do agree it is making us less personable, but i think we can change that for the better; ie. webcam/ ichat vs. instant messaging or text.
I think human behavior directly involves technology and its advancements. Where would we be without our first tools and technology, such as the stone wheel and stone hammers? Technology should always be embraced because as the technology evolves, humans socially and mentally evolve. Some may argue that technology actually makes us stupid, but i think that's a different sociological reason; being lazy and short attention spans.
