Blood Banks That Pay Cash

magic word empathy

is often enough to read again and again about the "evil" Internet: The fact that most young people would just chat yet, and personal contacts will no longer maintain that we only still have virtual friends (so-called Facebook friends) and our interpersonal communication would be reduced to banal Twitter messages.

describes a transition different view of things Thomas Knüwer in his blog indiscretion honor under the title "The victory of the weak links . It represents the positive aspects of networking and social media before:
Replaced this is a personal interview, a meeting for dinner, an afternoon together? No. No one wants. However: This intensive communication is just denied for those strong connections - just as before. The key to our life together in business, politics and society is empathy: the gift to empathize with others and in everything we do, to consider the consequences for others. We are not selfish by nature, aggressive individual fighters. Rather, cooperation, solidarity and compassion are the foundations of our lives together.
Within the comments on this article, there are also a complementary link to a study by Prof. Dr. Franz Josef Roell " influence of new media on communication young people." Knüwer accepts the essential reference book on the by Jeremy Rifkin " The empathic Civilization: Towards a global awareness .

The statements made here I can even confirm it. As an example I will mention only that I mention - more precisely on the so-called Twittagessen already very nice and friendly people I met that I had not known outside of Twitter messages to date. And also on Facebook "old" and new acquaintances were revived.
