feels like a social network. But it is actually an imitation network. Being alone causes us to seek connection through whatever means necessary. With social media always at our fingertips‚ we can connect whenever we want (Sherry Turkle: Connected but alone?). The problem is people tend to mix up the feeling of connection they get through social media with the feeling of real physical connection. People feel that they are connecting with their friends at all times‚ but actually they are creating an illusion
