I really like the blog believeneptunemonologue! This story is very touching. I think it really shows us how the internet connects us in ways we really never think about. If someone told me this story I wouldn't believe the thing that connected this woman and his husband was in fact Twitter.
This story is very ironic, but past all that it shows us that you can use the internet and social media cites for an array of things, not just telling everyone your latest embarrassing story or what your plans are for that day. This story here shows us, through this woman, that you can use social media cites for more serious things even emergencies. The internet is a great tool we just need to be informed on how to use it.
I think if anything this article relates a lot to what we talk about in class. The internet has so much more capability than we know. It can connect a woman with he husband even though they are not really together. I feel that the internet has its greatest strengths when we use it to its full potential. We talked a lot about the good and the bad with the internet in this class. We talked about how the internet separates us from actual human contact, but I think whether the web is good or bad it really in how we as individuals choose to use it. With this story we can see that the internet has a capacity for good that we sometimes don't even think about!
Great story definitely worth sharing! Thank you for posting.
