WTF?

I've often wondered what McLuhan would say about all this, but Nick Carr — a poet of a blogger who I'm adding to my regulars — says it's already way past McLuhan and refers me to a French post-modernist and this telling quote:
Mass media reaches its natural end-state when we broadcast our lives rather than live them.
I wonder what my Facebook (fb) friends really think of all this. Oh, wait, it's all about the moment, right? Like bungee jumping. Only less risky.
