I finally decided to come into the 21st century related to technology. Today I joined Facebook and Twitter, although I do so reluctantly. I am taking the advice of people I respect who insist that these are important tools for business. While I can accept this to be true, I also believe that they should not replace human connection. In fact, I wrote an article several months ago that was published in a Tulsa Oklahoma newspaper about this. The article was about my experience with technology and human connection when my husband Mike was in the earthquake in Haiti. My chosen subtitle of that article, which did not make the “cut” when it was published, was “Facebook is not a Human Connection.”
