Years ago Ma Bell had a slogan that said "Long distance calling-the next best thing to being there". Today, most people think "call or visiting my friends, the next best thing to Facebooking them". Think of the people on the spaceship in the movie Wal-E. It seems like that's where humanity is headed.

Your points are valid. The internet giveth and the internet taketh away when it comes to interpersonal communication. I try really hard to manage it in my favor but it's imperfect for sure.
