---FIRST NOTE---
Carl(2011) said that though we are in an era of modern technology with continuous and fast discovery of significant innovations which made our lives more convenient, we should not forget that machines are created to be controlled by humans and not the other way around. But if we are going to look around us we see lots of people being slaves of electronic devices and social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter. A non-critical minded person could have thought that this is a positive effect but according to Turkle a science professor in MIT that "we seem determined to give human qualities to objects and content to treat each other as things." An example is that we let our exams fail because we give more importance in updating our status in Facebook or Twitter rather than studying hard to keep our grades high to please our parents that are hoping for us to finish our studies on time. This is a sad fact which is caused by our misinterpretation of the essence of having right priorities.
