Question #1:
Do you believe that more technology, for example virtual worlds, can solve the problem of alienation that technology helped to create in the first place? Why or why not? Is there a solution to this problem? Do you have any experience with virtual worlds such a SecondLife or World of Warcraft? If so, what are your thoughts on virtual worlds?
