The ripple effect of our connection: Danielle Di-Masi

In this talk, Danielle considers two methods we have to grow our relationships: on and offline. Are we using both of these methods effectively? Are we more comfortable connecting online than going through the uncomfortable feelings that we may go through when we are face to face with a new person?

If life online continues the way it is, then what is the ripple effect? How will our children or their children build relationships because of what we are creating now? Will we be able to teach our children how to make friends if the ripple effect is that we just continue to press a "connect" button?

It should not be just one or the other: Face to face or online. The two need to merge but not one overtake the other unconsciously.
