This way, it has become increasingly difficult to interrogate the characters of individuals one relates with. Indeed, in the words of Treadway and Smith (2012), "…it is very easy for people to set up a Facebook profile with any persona they would like." This creates fertile grounds for instances of dishonesty and deception which could end up straining interpersonal relations thus making them short-lived. Some of the approaches we make use of to interact at a social level will also inevitably become phased out. For instance, according to Dalton, Hoyle, and Watts (2010), people are increasingly giving up voicemail which is in their opinion too time-consuming in this age of instant communication. For this reason, it is highly likely that going forward, some of the common forms of communication utilized in social interaction today will be eliminated to usher in other more convenient and efficient forms of communication. Towards that end, social interaction as we know it today could end up assuming an entirely different form. In the final analysis, as I have already predicted elsewhere in this text,...

For instance, technology has enabled us to overcome geographical limitations of distance thus making it possible for individuals from across the world to interact and relate freely. It should however be noted that the ensuing abundance of relationships have not had a meaningful impact on the quality of social interaction.
