I agree with you. I think that point is proven by businesses that have now instituted email free days...to get people out of the cubicles and away from their email. If they want to ask for something or communicate with someone in the office, they have to actually go to that person.
It's all a matter of balance and perspective. The internet should not be a replacement for personal interaction. But for many it has become that. For those with medical or psychological issues that keep them from communicating with people face-to-face it's one thing...but for the rest of us we have no excuse.
