Back in the day, pre internet 'social connection' wasn't really a thing unless you were in one of the popular groups. Maybe the phone would ring. Maybe you'd go out for a beer and someone you knew would be there. When you were younger there was school of course,

Something like responding to an article like I'm doing now, maybe you'd write a letter to the paper. Probably not, though.

Since the growth of the internet and later mobile phones you're 'connected' 24/7. So now we have angst about it.... but really things are massively better overall.
