A number of education specialists, sociologists, religious leaders, and addiction experts have claimed that the internet will dehumanize and isolate us. However, when you consider how the internet is used to bring people together, it is a difficult argument to make. We create clubs and manage organizations, establish new relationships, and find friends from long ago to reconnect with. We share art, music, and sometimes too much information! We play games, we review movies and sometimes we argue - but we do it together. Does the internet isolate? Surely not. Could the internet be used by individuals that want to be isolated to further isolate themselves? Absolutely! If you are predisposed to being anti-social, if you are a hermit or just want to be left alone - the internet is the perfect solution. You can get just about everything you may ever want or need with a valid credit card and never leave your home or speak to anyone ever again. Its a matter of choice but the internet seems to have brought more people together, forging common interests and creating communities, more than it has pulled us apart.
