Vielleicht denke ich zu viel...

I have always thought that one of the best inventions ever has been the Internet. Almost everything in the world can be reachable by only clicking a mouse. It has for sure changed the way we live to a great extent – a house without an online computer is a much more limited house. We can organize any trip to anywhere in a minute. It has even changed our relationships models. It is easier than anytime before to stay in touch with friends and collegues. Some people even maintain internet-based relationships.

Some applications like Facebook allow us to keep the world updated about our emotional status, the parties we go to, the places we visit… Almost nothing is private today and we are always available.
We are crazy about technology. Laptops and iphones are a great example of the last most desired treasures. And the main use we give them is to keep in touch with other people. We sometimes prefer technology to relationships, but what we eventually end up doing with this technology is to keep us linked to other people.
It is so easy to be online… But also so easy to go offline. It takes only a couple of minutes to sit down and compose and e-mail. But, as it usually happens, sometimes we feel terribly lazy to even do really simple things. We are even online communicating with the others and doing one hundred and ten things at the same time…
I can’t help but wonder: are these improvements in communication really helping us communicate? And in matters of love, do actions really speak louder than words?
