Have you ever been somewhere with your friends and they won't stop taking photos for Snapchat (or similar) long enough to enjoy your time together? We spend so much time trying to store moments and share moments that sometimes we forget to enjoy them altogether. I would rather have 1 photo to remember an occasion, than 100 to remember a day where all we did was take photos.
It's great that we can share our lives with each other through social media, but when it gets to the point where that is all we ever do, it becomes pointless. If we constantly post, how can we have anything to post about? It also drives people further apart, as they spend less time talking face to face. I would rather spend some time online, and the rest actually looking at what is going on around me. It really frustrates me when I can't have a conversation because people are more interested in what is on their phones.
Do you feel the same?
Totally agree Gemma, although there is nothing funnier than watching a hoard of tourists rampaging through Oxford following a selfie stick!
