It goes without saying that for most connected people today, the use of phones, tablets, and laptops to access and share content is as normal as a family discussion at dinner \u2013 or more so. For some of us, this is new and disconcerting. On the other hand, those of us who use it tend to be pretty comfortable with it. But do we really know what we\u2019re dealing with? Are we really doing this intentionally, or are we being drawn into it without thinking?<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s take a thirty thousand foot view of this for a moment. When you get billions of people\u00a0(1 p. 2) all connected together, it\u2019s a mess of communication \u2013 emails, text messages, chats, photos, videos, connected gaming, live streams, and status messages are gluing together people from all parts of the world.<\/p>\n
