An inside scoop in the social gaming industry, including all the latest news, game releases and studies.

An example of the negative impact that technology can cause. Personal face-to-face conversation is becoming less meaningful because of texting.

I think texting is a valuable form of communication under certain circumstances, however, like you said, it should only serve as "an alternate way to communicate quickly with others". It shouldn't be the other way around!

I think you all brought up a good point! Overall, whether we communicate via texting, email, face-to-face, snail mail (does anyone still do this? lol) etc. we need to acknowledge that each of them has its advantages and disadvantages. It's our responsibility as users on how we can utilize them ethically and not be dragged by social mishaps.

Technophobia... Is this a real concern that we need to address?

@Britt: What picture are you referring to? The ones you've annotated? If that's the case, I think you would need to use the "Capture" tool and highlight the picture that you want.

@Samantha: Did you install the diigo toolbar in your browser? If you did, the Capture tool is right next to the Highlighter. Just click on Capture, then the screen will turn gray and your cursor will become like a cross hair. You can then select the specific section/picture that you want to capture. Hope that helps!

This article discusses about the negative impact of Facebook's Open Graph (frictionless sharing") in the world of social networking. It gets really annoying when someone would share an article/news/video etc, the user would first have to install an app into their profile!

I know right.. me too! I usually have to circumvent the process in order to avoid installing the apps. I would go straight to the website where the news/article is posted instead of clicking the link directly from Facebook.

I found this scholarly article that talks about the future of social computing based on the integration of technological infrastructures (e.g. Web 2.0, database, multimedia etc.) and social theories, fundamental principles of ICT.
