Carlajane Silvania 12-HUMSS 16 Written Task # 1 "ALONE TOGETHER" In today’s era where advance technology is present. Sherry Turkle wanted us to understand why people expected more from technology. It is about the new technology that keeps us busy. We text each other to communicate using our mobile phones. Sleep with it. Furthermore, When someone took away our phones we became anxious as Turkle said. We choose text instead of talk. She also said, Just because we grew up with technology we assume that the internet is all grown up. We tend to see what we have now, is what we are living in the future. Technology is the portal to be with each other. I am strongly agree with Sherry Turkle, due to the fact that I’ve also experienced being anxious when my phone took away from me. I became worried. It also keeps me busy. For example, when I’m scrolling on Facebook I consumed much time. I preferred to text my friends instead of talk. It seems like it has been part of my life. Honestl
