The 10 Levels of Intimacy in Today’s Communication

I saw this poignantly funny image in BuzzFeed today. I do, however, disagree with #7 – “Letter” – and petition to replace with with “Message Boards.”

Examining this with a bit more depth, I am reminded of one of my favorite Cracked articles, 7 Reasons the 21st Century is Making You Miserable. If you haven’t read it, go do it now. You will find a new appreciation for fresh air and good old-fashioned means of social interaction such as face-to-face conversations.

What do you think? Has technology (sadly) taken over our lives?

    you know very well that it has taken both of our lives considering we talk as much on twitter, facebook status, IM as face to face, but i agree with you, they need to change letter to message board (IRC?)

    This is hilarious! My friends and I are always talking about how no relationship status is official until it’s on Facebook!
