Whether technology makes us close to each other?

You must be familiar with this:
In a restaurant, you are hungry but cannot eat the delicious food on table because your friends just shouted "Wait a minute. Let me take pictures first and post them on microblog."
At home, you want to share your exciting plan for the weekend but your darling just stares at his or her mobile phone and giggles inexplicably from time to time. Feeling disappointed, you pick up your phone and mess around on e-commerce stores.
You must also be familiar with this:
Getting in touch with an old friend, you can talk for hours on WeChat and always have something new to share.
You buy smartphones for your parents and teach them how to use Internet and apps. One day, on your way home from work, a strange video call comes in but surprisingly its your parents, nervous yet excited.

Technology make us think it is a way to know the universe,to solve all the problems the human has faced. But all the time, the technology developed too fast and human are not smart enough to use it. The most developments are not driven by reason or scientific logic but by humans greed and laziness. The result is : human make more problems that can not be solved by technology, for example, the environment problems. Communication problem is the same problem caused by technology, we have a good technology to make the communication more easier and convenient, but as the technology is driven by the humans laziness, it make us far away. |
| Despite I live far away from my family, I think it is making us far away because we are beginning to lose the human contact. However, the same technology might bring a solution with tips and reminders to every user, we need to humanize the tech world so in the future we can really share the experience with our relatives and loved ones. |
Technology will make us closer to the far end friends and families . but at the same time will make people far from the closer family and friends. because it makes peopole live as indivisuals instead of face to face gathering they use smart devises to meet also it kills the free time of all people . |
Technology makes us far away naturally as it destroy our time and human contact. Though we contact a lot of friends virtually but has lack of emotions, believeness  may bring leisure time spent/small time friendship but not real friends...........as a result it makes us far away in long run. |

| The technological innovations (e.g. mobile phone, social media, email etc.) bring us closer to our family. With these innovations we can speak more with our friends and we can reach them immediately. So the technology help us to overcome the space and time. But in the meantime it gives us possibility to isolate ourselves and to lose the real human relationships. Therefore this is a paradoxical situation, because we can have hundreds or thousands relationships all over the world, however we can be lonely. |
