"The traditional distance between people and machines has become harder to maintain"Turkle talks about how people use technology as a medium to communicate with one another, they forget they are interacting with the medium for the communication.
"Are we living life on the screen or life in the screen?"
This is interesting as it shows interactivity can not only be empowering to the user it can also give a sense of immediacy to the users too. An interface or interaction so smooth and discreet that it's not thought about because you are so focused on content or the interface/ interaction blends into what the content is so well. I think a good example of this is the Nintendo Wii, the controller is designed to give you immediacy like you are actually in a sword fight, driving in a race or playing golf.
