Media Equation





Summary
The articles were on the sociality of it all and how computers and human connect in that social space. Essentially the purpose was to show the social qualities of computing devices and how it is natural for humans to use it in this way. And also the possibility of using the computer as a replacement for a personality and whether it would be accepted or not.

Discussion
These articles really got into the real human computer interaction type details and explained the social-ness to how we look at things and machines. The idea of applying social rules to these machines makes a lot of sense and allows for us to trust and accept them more.
