Collide: The Internet

The Internet is something almost unavoidable in this day and age. Technology has completely taken over our social lives meaning we have lost quite a lot fo our physical social interaction. I remember the days before I had a mobile phone, I used to go around to all of my friends houses and knock on their doors to see if they wanted to come out and play or go to the cinema or the park - then everyone got telephones so you would call around - now we just instantly message all of our friends at once in a group chat with little thought or effort. I like to switch my phone off sometimes - especially when  I am doing my work - just to get away from the hustle and bustle of social media. The internet is great too, we have so much information at our fingertips, but sometimes i wonder if we have a little bit too much for our own good, making us paranoid.
