Is Digital Media Bad For Us?

     This is a question that I don't think will ever be answered. Digital media has had such a positive impact in so many ways and made so many new technologies available. It has allowed so many advancements and it has helped us come a long way. There are many things that we wouldn't be able to do without it. Butin some ways, it hurts us. Despite the fact that through social networks like Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube we can be in contact with other human beings 24/7, from nearly anywhere, we don't communicate the way we used to. People rarely talk on the phone because texting is so much more convenient. We spend so much of our time on the computer rather than talking face to face. So maybe digital media is bad for us, but it is balanced out by the benefits. As long as we don't let it get out of control, digital media can be a good thing.
