Social media has enabled us to communicate with a much greater number of people on a global scale that used to only be viable on a local level (outside of pen pals, amirite?) While this is great when it comes to keeping friendships alive over great distances, it also increases the demands on people to keep a much larger number of relationships going simultaneously. Do you really have 1,500 friends?
Social media is a great tool when it supplements IRL relationships. But if you find yourself trawling Facebook or scrolling through Instagram while you're at a dinner party or hanging out with your significant other, it may be time to reconsider your relationship with the Internet.
No matter your stance on whether the Internet has changed communication for worse or better, there’s no denying it plays a major role in our lives today. And to make sure you keep abreast of the latest technologies, head to eBay for your next tech purchase. From 29th March to the 2nd April, eBay is holding a 20% off Tech sale on new products from selected retailers!
