Introduction for Critical Thinking Piece: The Internet is Good, or is it Bad?

The critical thinking piece is to showcase our ability to analyze the material we read. I chose to include the piece I wrote in response to community discussion board #3. The assignment was to evaluate the essay "The Museum of Me," by Ellen Ullman. In the essay, Ullman explains that she believes the Internet encourages people to stay at home, and interferes with the building of relationships. We were to analyze her text, decide if we think her concerns were legitimate, and write our response. I believe that analysis is a weak point for me and loved the challenge that English 101D provided. The included essay is a "polished" copy of my response to the discussion board prompt.
