Boing Boing discusses an interesting article on the effects of Twitter and other social networking devices on interpersonal relations.

And when they do socialize face to face, it feels oddly as if they’ve never actually been apart. They don’t need to ask, “So, what have you been up to?” because they already know. Instead, they’ll begin discussing something that one of the friends Twittered that afternoon, as if picking up a conversation in the middle.

This was certainly my experience this morning at brunch. The writers heads would explode if they ever read the soooo... thread.
