the internet and its social impact

Now i'd like to talk about a particular subject that i find to be alittle sad.
Since the moment man was able to speak and understand we've had conversation.
But over time we have gone to lengths to communicate quicker and easier.
The humble word was invented and soon after the letter and telegram and then some brilliant inventor designed the first telephone.
Over the years technology has made significant leaps and bounds especially in the area of communications.
Now with each new device created we've come up with ways to help us use them effeciently.
I don't know if you knew this but text speak wasn't invented with the mobile phone but with the telegram.
we needed to send information but was charged for each word so short hand and abit of mind power came up with things like lol, brb etc.
Now we come to the invetion of the internet and my main point of my blog.
Ever since its creation people are talking less and less and the art of the simple conversation is dying out. We don't simply talk any more we text or email and this in its self saddens me because people are no longer interacting with others through speech and actually isolating ourselves (my self included i may add) through using the internet.
Some people are that bad they feel awkward when talking to someone in real life then if they spoke to them over the internet
and this i feel is a rapidly growing problem.
Eventually we'll be that much in need of our technology that if we were deprived of it i think it would take us a very long time to recover from it.
So i say why don't you stop using you emails and your texts for a day and see how difficult it is to talk to someone face to face.
