Can't beat the physical world

Social media can be used to maintain communication but it does not create as strong a link than when people also meet in person

I know there's an apparent irony here - that all of this social media stuff is virtual and location is less important than before.  That may be true at a surface level, but the digital world has never and will never replace the physical world...except in Hollywood stories.  DMs, hashtag chats, threaded conversations are all useful and can help us initiate and maintain relationships.
